As for Taiwan's opponents, South Korea will pose the biggest threat as it will send some of it's top KBO players to Qatar. Japan is expected to field an amateur team at the Asian Games - but will be dangerous nonetheless.
With that said, Taiwan will look to either H.C. Kuo or C.M. Chiang to pitch against South Korea in the opening game for Taiwan.
#2 Starter - Chiang
Ace - KuoOther News
Ching-Lung Lo won his 4th game yesterday in the HWB. Lo pitched 6 innings, giving up 1 run (via a solo HR) on 4 hits. Although he K'd 6 hitters, he also put 4 men on base via the freepass. Box Score

our nt is sounding pretty good... How come Wang doesnt pitch for our NT? Any news on Tsao's arm?
more news...
Chen Chin feng and Wu si yo are both probably going to the NPB next year.
Chen with orix and wu with the marines
whoa whoa whoa. more news!!!
Chen has turned down the offer to play in japan! He's decided to stay in taiwan to play for la new for another season, after he has discovered a 'different' kind of baseball here.
i hope wu follows suit. i dont want to keep seeing talent draining out of the cpbl.
I dunno why, but i'd feel beter with chiang facing off against the koreans instead of kuo.
The best way to upgrade talent in the CPBL is to allow more foreign players. We should lift the quota to at least 5 per team.
I know we need to develop local talent, but what better way to do so than to expose our youngsters to a higher level of competition? Trade protectionism makes one lazy.
I think that this would also boost ticket sales.
I'd say definitely no Tsao pitching. Save Tsao and Wang for the WBC in 2009.

The showcase event for Asian athletes, the Asian Games are back. Held every four years, Asian Games 2006 is coming up in Doha, a beautiful city in Qatar.

The history of Asian Games reveals that Qatar is only the second country in West Asia to hold this event since 1974, when Iran were the proud hosts.
The Asian Games 2006, Doha will be the 15th Asian Games since the inception of the event way back in 1951. The first Asian Games were held in the Indian capital, New Delhi.
Qatar is a small country spread over 11,437 square kilometers. For a progressive economy like Qatar, the Asian Games is a massive event, something that'll augment the nation's development.

lol i got to shake hands and take a picture with wang today. :D
You paid $500 USD for it?
nope i was at this stair climbing event that was being held this morning.
With Wang's past history of injuries and commitment to the Yanks, I can't see Wang pitching for the NT unless he gets the green light for the 2008 Olympics or the next WBC.
Maos, I heard that the money wasn't good enough for Chen to jump ship to Taiwan. Maybe another dominant year in the CPBL will give Chen that leverage next year. BTW, congrats on meeting Wang!
