The Baseball World Cup announced its all-tournament team, with former Cardinals farmhand Curt Smith named MVP. The 26-year-old Smith, who starred at Vermont in college, now plays for the Lincoln SaltDogs of the independent American Association.

Here's the all-tournament team:
Starting Pitcher: Hyoun Taek Oh, South Korea
Relief Pitcher: Yadier Pedroso, Cuba
Catcher: Damaso Espino, Panama
First Baseman: Jose Abreu, Cuba
Second Baseman: Joe Thurston, U.S.
Third Baseman: Chang Min Mo, South Korea
Shortstop: Jonathan Malo, Canada
Outfielders: Rusney Castillo, Cuba; Tom Brice, Australia; Conception Rodriguez, Panama
DH: Fernando Seguinol, Panama

The United States' bronze-medal game against Canada was cancelled by rain. While the Americans were first told they would be co-bronze medalists, Canada's players were given bronze medals on a tiebreaker (Canada went 8-3 in the Cup, the U.S. went 7-4, and Canada won the head-to-head matchup), while the Americans did not get medals.

Also, the U.S. added Tigers farmhand James McCann, their 2011 second-round pick, to the roster for the upcoming Pan Am Games in Mexico, which begins Thursday. McCann replaces the injured Travis d'Arnaud (Blue Jays), who had surgery on an injured thumb in Arizona this week.
