Pudge in WBC

So Pudge Rodriguez has signed up to play for Puerto Rico in the WBC. Is Pudge the Jeter of Puerto Rico? There could be several replacements for Pudge and Jeter to play their respective positions but they are the old kings of the position and will never let go. Jeter will be starting at SS for the USA most likely over J.J. Hardy and Jimmy Rollins who arguably are better. I guess Yadier Molina isn't a lot of competition for catcher in Puerto Rico, but did anyone see Pudge on the Yankees this year. Jose Molina playing in place of Posada basically the entire pitching staff's ERA lower, then Pudge comes in and they start pitching worse. Well, at least pudge is a better hitter than Jose right? Wrong, they both had an OPS+ of 51. Yadier had an OPS+ of 95, pretty darn good for a Gold Glover. Maybe I'm jumping the gun and Pudge won't start, he even said "here we are all major leaguers and all deserve to play. I am prepared to play any position.” With taht said, Yadier could be starting at catcher and Pudge at 2b without a contract for '09, trying to impress some scouts on his newly founded position versatility.
