Noone who cheers for the Yankees is a true baseball fan.
Seriously though, the Yankees are the dictionary definition of everything that is wrong with pro sports.
Part of the problem is that the tournament lacks any kind of prestige at this point. It's basically a bunch of exhibition games during spring training with the teams simply made up by nationality.
Hopefully MLB et al keep with it, because it will take a few tournaments before it starts to mean something.
