The World Baseball Classic will begin next week as the tournament looks to provide something special in its sixth iteration. Rosters and schedules are locked in and all that's left to do is to get the action going.
WBC teams are split into four pools of five, with the top two in each advancing onto the quarterfinals. Every game carries significant weight, and even a single stumble can change things dramatically. Underdogs may emerge and juggernauts may fall, completely changing the outlook of how this thing will play out.
