    The Philadelphia Phillies recently played a baseball team called Team Canada. Are they the Olympic baseball team, the Arizona winter team or something else? Did they replace the Toronto Blue Jays?

    		Most of Team Canada, Canada's entry in the World Baseball Classic, is made up of major leaguers such as Justin Morneau, Jason Bay, Matt Stairs, Joey Votto, Russell Martin and Mark Teahen. But the pitching staff is thin, with Scott Richmond of the Blue Jays as the #1 starter.

    Not only didn't Team Canada replace the Blue Jays, they played the Blue Jays this week, with Richmond starting against his own team:
