We didn't even make the Olympic level in baseball last time.
Because Horacio Ramirez was our ace...
The main problem with baseball in the Olympics was the requirement that a team come from the host nation, two teams come from Europe. a team come from Oceania/Africa, and only two teams from the only places that play baseball, the Americas and Asia. The result last year was nobodies like Greece, Italy, and the Netherlands and in 2000 South Africa, Italy, and the Netherlands, getting absolutely hammered by decent US, Japanese, Korean, and Cuban teams. Hopefully, the World Cup idea will pan out and prove successfull.
