I guess last night's loss to Japan makes this post pretty much irrelevant, but I promised a list of former MWL players that were on the USA roster, so here you go:
Dunn, Adam - Dayton Dragons (2000)
Granderson, Curtis - West Michigan Whitecaps (rehab appearance in 2008)
Hawkins, LaTroy - Fort Wayne Wizards (1993)
Oswalt, Roy - Michigan Battle Cats (1999)
Peavy, Jake - Fort Wayne Wizards (2000)
Putz, J.J. - Wisconsin Timber Rattlers (2000)
Shields, Scot - Cedar Rapids Kernels (1998)
Thornton, Matt - Wisconsin Timber Rattlers (1999-2000)
So that leaves Korea vs. Japan for the title.
Thanks to Chris Mehring's blog at http://rattler-radio.blogspot.com/, we know that Shin Soo Choo was a 2001-2002 Timber Rattler who is currently playing for Korea.
As far as I can tell from my extensive research (ha!), that's the only remaining MWL alum left in the classic.
