The 40-year-old pitcher is on the 60-man preliminary American roster and thinks there may be an opening for middle relievers because starting pitchers are likely to be forced out of games by pitch limits. "I am really intrigued and excited about this whole World Cup thing," he said. "There's a very small possibility that potentially I could make it. I'm going to be a guy that's going to have to wait until the very end." |
