Why Italy’s Underdog Espresso Shot Could Crush Puerto Rico in a Stunning Upset
Italy has been making a name for themselves this World Baseball Classic. Part of the excitement around them is that the team is taking espresso shots in the dugout after homers. Sign me up for that during the regular season as well. Let’s make baseball a little more goofy. This team has a similar makeup to Puerto Rico and a lot of good names on the roster. Offensively, their catchers are dominating with both having a homer and batting average over .400. Jon Berti and Miles Mastrobuoni are also playing solid baseball. In the outfield, Jac Caglianone and Dante Nori are making their mark for the Italians. Their pitching staff has some good options as well. Both Michael Lorenzen and Aaron Nola have won games and allowed no earned runs. You can get to the Italian bullpen, so the managers may ask these starters to go as much as allowed to try to salvage games.
