Betting on Colombia
- WBC lifetime record: 1-2.
- Best position: 11th place (2017).
- Runline: [To be defined]
- Moneyline:[To be defined].
- Over/Under:[To be defined].
Colombia was struck with the news that new Mets pitcher José Quintana suffered a rib fracture during Spring Training, an injury that will of course keep him out of the World Baseball Classic.
Quintana was the main option to be the starter against Mexico on Saturday, but now his place will be taken by San Diego Padres pitcher Nabil Crismatt.
Colombia was the great revelation in the 2017 World Classic, when they came very close to eliminating none other than the Dominican Republic, so this time around the “cafeteros” will seek to continue growing internationally and advance to the second round with players such as Gio Urshela and Harold Ramirez.
Betting on Mexico
- WBC lifetime record: 7-11.
- Best position: 6th place (2006).
- Runline: [To be defined]
- Moneyline:[To be defined].
- Over/Under:[To be defined].
Mexico is led by Los Angeles Dodgers star pitcher Julio Urias, who is coming off a 2.16 ERA in the 2022 MLB season, which earned him third place in the Cy Young voting.
Other stars of the Aztec roster are: Randy Arozarena, Rowdy Tellez, Patrick Sandoval, Giovanny Gallegos, Luis Cessa and Taijuan Walker.
It is a team that has always been in debt in this tournament, and that is something they will try to change with a roster that looks like the best they have ever had in their history to face the World Baseball Classic.
JefeBet Prediction
This will be a very tense match, as both teams know that by sharing a group with the United States, only one spot is available to advance to the next round.
At JefeBet we are leaning towards a game of good pitching and defense, in which there will be few runs this Saturday afternoon at Chase Field.
Prediction: Under (COL 2-3 MEX).
