Part 8/13:
Most Blue Jays players will participate in the WBC, which presents both opportunities and challenges. Players like Kirk and Guerrero will have to balance ramping up for the tournament with the risks of injury and fatigue coming off a deep postseason run. The timing of the WBC, overlapping with spring training, is a concern for injury management and form. Historically, teams have faced setbacks with players coming into camp less rested after international duty, but this year's enthusiasm and global reach may offset those concerns.
