World Baseball Classic action on Saturday will see Colombia taking on Canada in a Pool A contest. This is the opening game for both, and ahead of our prediction it is worth noting that Julio Teheran is set to take the bump for Colombia against Michael Soroka.
Colombia only won one of their group games when they last played in a World Baseball Classic but that came against eventual group winners Mexico who went to the semi-finals where they were beaten by Japan.
They have a strong starter on the mound in game one with 248 starts in the MLB under his belt for 81 wins. He lost his way a little bit in recent seasons but his experience can be a steady influence for his team.
Canada were in that same group in 2023, winning 5-0 when they took on Colombia in the third of their four Pool games. They finished the group in third with a 2-2 record, not enough to qualify for the next stage.
The biggest blow for Canada is the loss of Freddie Freeman. The Los Angeles Dodger has opted to stay at home ahead of the new season which costs Canada their best offensive player.
