Their pitching staff is the deepest in the tournament.
Venezuela just came of of winning a tournament, its the opposite their, American players are getting bashed for playing, while the Venezuela players were getting bashed if they didnt play. Top 3 teams are definitely US, Venezuela, and Dominican Republic. Honestly I dont think its overly important for the US to win this thing, I would like them to, but its gonna be difficult.
