World Baseball Classic: Each MLB Team’s List Of Players

All 20 teams at the World Baseball Classic will have MLB representation. And all 30 MLB teams will have several players taking part in baseball’s marquee international event. In all, 190 players who are on major league rosters will be at the WBC.

Which team has the most? The Mariners (16) lead the pack with the Phillies (15) right behind. On the flipside, the Nationals (2) and the Astros (3) will have the least. 

WBC Power Rankings: USA or Japan? Stacking All 20 Teams

What’s cool about the event (March 5-17) is also the sheer number of talented players who’ll be showing out during the tournament. Both reigning MVPs (Aaron Judge for the USA, Shohei Ohtani for Japan) and both reigning Cy Young winners (USA duo Tarik Skubal and Paul Skenes) are ready to go. 

In all, 78 All-Stars will be playing, the most ever. Who has the most? Team USA will strut out the most 2025 All-Stars (15) while the Dominican Republic will have eight on their squad. 

With that, let’s break down how many major-leaguers will be at the World Baseball Classic.

What’s Next: Will Tarik Skubal’s $32M Arbitration Deal Impact Top MLB Stars?

Entering Tarik Skubal’s historic hearing on Wednesday, the record salary for an arbitration-eligible player was $31 million, the record salary for an arbitration-eligible pitcher was $19.75 million and the record salary awarded by an arbitration panel was $19.9 million. 

Now, all of those records belong to Skubal, who will be paid $32 million in 2026 after winning an unprecedented decision in the history of MLB’s arbitration system.

The way the system works, players with between three and six years of service time are eligible for arbitration. Those players and their team must come to an agreement on a one-year salary by a certain deadline. If they can’t, the player and club exchange salary figures for the upcoming season. They can still continue negotiating up until the date of a hearing, where an independent three-person panel considers arguments from both sides before picking either the player’s number or the team’s number. 

The Tigers wanted to pay Skubal, the 29-year-old back-to-back American League Cy Young Award winner, $19 million entering his final season under team control in Detroit. Instead, Skubal, one of eight members on MLB’s executive subcommittee — a group that plays a key leadership role during collective bargaining — was thinking far bigger. A year ahead of what will likely be a hostile labor battle between MLB and the MLBPA, Skubal filed at $32 million, a number never before attained by any player — let alone any pitcher — in arbitration. 

Skubal beat Juan Soto’s 2024 highwater mark for an arbitration-eligible player by $1 million and obliterated the previous record for an arbitration-eligible pitcher set by David Price, who settled with the Tigers at $19.75 million in 2015.

Since then, one-year deals for position players have jumped considerably. For pitchers, however, little progress had been made over the last decade. Until now. 

What’s Next For Superstars and Arbitration

Prior to Thursday’s decision, the record year-over-year jump in salary for a pitcher in arbitration belonged to Jacob deGrom, who was coming off his first Cy Young season and entering his second year of arbitration eligibility when he settled with the Mets at $17 million in January 2019. That deal gave him a $9.6 million raise from the previous season. 

Skubal’s raise more than doubled deGrom’s. 

– World Baseball Classic: Where Skubal Fits In Team USA’s Lineup

The Tigers ace will make $21.85 million more in 2026 ($32 million) than he did in 2025 ($10.15 million). His circumstances differed from deGrom’s. Not only had Skubal already won two Cy Young Awards at the time of his hearing, he was also entering his third and final year of arbitration eligibility — a vital part of winning his case. 

Players with at least five years of service time (as Skubal has) can compare their salary to any similar player, not just those in arbitration. That opened a door for Skubal, who leads all qualified starters in ERA and strikeouts over the past two seasons. He was still seeking a lower number than the average annual value of other star pitchers, including Zack Wheeler ($42 million), deGrom ($37 million) and Gerrit Cole ($36 million), and he only had to prove he was closer to being worth $32 million than he was to being worth $19 million. Had the Tigers filed at $22 million or $25 million, it’s possible that Skubal wouldn’t have set every record. 

All of these factors led to Skubal’s victory, but what does it mean for players to come? He’s in such a league of his own that it’s hard to say. There aren’t many pitchers who will accomplish what Skubal has before hitting free agency, but NL Cy Young Award winner Paul Skenes — who is not even arbitration eligible yet — is certain watching. Maybe teams will think twice before undervaluing their stars.  Maybe pre-arb talents will think twice before signing team-friendly extensions. At the least, every star player entering his final year under team control now has a new number to shoot for, at least as long as the system exists.  

It’s possible this is the last year we see it in its current form, depending on what happens with the next CBA negotiations. 

What’s Next for Skubal

More details will emerge, but at least initially, it doesn’t seem like Skubal was as insulted by the arbitration process as former Milwaukee ace Corbin Burnes was when he went to his hearing with the Brewers in 2023. (It doesn’t hurt that Skubal, unlike Burnes, won his case and will be a much richer man in 2026.) 

Burnes was traded after the season. It remains to be seen if, or when, the same will happen with Skubal, who could beat Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s $325 million benchmark for a pitcher in free agency next winter if he continues on this trajectory. 

– World Baseball Classic: USA or Japan? Ranking All 20 Teams

Will the Tigers really be willing to go to those lengths to keep Skubal? If not, will they try to recoup as much value as they can right now by trading him before the season? Or will they wait until the deadline to make that call, when they’ll have a better idea of their ability to contend and when other suitors won’t have to pay Skubal’s full salary? (Suddenly, it’s no longer the bargain it could have been, which might scare some interested parties off.)

At the very least, the Tigers have now shown they’re capable of giving a pitcher a nine-figure deal. Just hours after arguing they shouldn’t have to pay Skubal $32 million, they gave Framber Valdez a three-year deal worth an average of $38.3 million per year (not accounting for deferrals). 

The timing is interesting. Did they sign Valdez, the best free-agent starter on the market, to acquire one of the best starting tandems in MLB for the rest of 2026? Or did they sign Valdez as Skubal’s replacement atop the rotation should they decide to trade him or move on after this year?

What’s Next for the Tigers

–>

After doing little for most of the winter to improve a group coming off a late-season collapse and second straight ALDS exit, the Tigers finally gave their fans reason for excitement. 

The addition of Valdez on a three-year, $115 million deal raises both the floor and ceiling of a Tigers’ rotation that ranked 22nd in innings pitched and 11th in ERA last season, even with Skubal pitching to a 2.21 ERA in 195.1 innings. 

Will there be more ahead, or will the results of Skubal’s hearing now stop them from adding? The Tigers are on track for the highest competitive-balance tax payroll in franchise history, a figure that’s only about $10 million away from the first luxury-tax threshold after Skubal won his case. They have uncertainty with their local TV deal, and they have already spent far more on their team than any competitor in their division, so they might be content to take this group into 2026.

Then again, the lineup looks largely the same after a year in which the Tigers scored the ninth-fewest runs in MLB after the All-Star break. If they don’t sign a free-agent position player, perhaps top prospects Kevin McGonigle and Max Clark will be able to create a spark at some point in 2026.

There are good teams. There are great teams. And then there is the juggernaut that Team USA will be sending to the 2026 World Baseball Classic. 

Under manager Mark DeRosa, this is clear-cut the best roster that Team USA has ever compiled. That seemed to be a given when Aaron Judge, who is set to play in his first WBC, signed on to be the captain of the team. But it goes well beyond the reigning American League MVP. 

Twenty-two of the 30 players on USA’s roster have been MLB All-Stars, a total that, unsurprisingly, leads all teams in the tournament. (The Dominican Republic’s loaded roster ranks second with 16 former MLB All-Stars, followed by Venezuela with 12.) Just based on MLB production, using 2025 WAR as a guide, USA has concocted the best roster of any team in WBC history. 

WBC Rosters: Team-By-Team Squads

With newcomers in Judge, AL MVP runner-up Cal Raleigh, two-time MVP Bryce Harper, two-time All-Star and 2023 Rookie of the Year Corbin Carroll, two-time All-Star Byron Buxton — joining 2023 holdovers such as Bobby Witt Jr., Kyle Schwarber and Will Smith – the USA’s lineup is even more stacked than it was three years ago. 

But it’s the pitching that really sets this team apart from previous star-studded groups.

WBC Power Rankings: Stacking Japan, USA and All 20 Squads

Attracting frontline arms can be an issue ahead of a long MLB season, but not this year. USA recruited both Cy Young Award winners in Tarik Skubal and Paul Skenes to a rotation that also includes two-time All-Star Logan Webb, 2025 All-Stars Joe Ryan and Matthew Boyd and future Hall of Famer Clayton Kershaw, fresh off retirement. Keep in mind, WBC teams really only need four starters throughout the tournament. 

It’s an embarrassment of riches — and that’s before getting to the power arms at the back end of a bullpen that includes Mason Miller, David Bednar and Griffin Jax. 

All of that should lead to a USA team more than capable of avenging a 2023 WBC finals loss and reclaiming international glory after winning the tournament in 2017. But it also means some tough decisions ahead for DeRosa when constructing a lineup and figuring out how to deploy the pitching staff. 

Of course, he’ll be able to mix and match from game to game depending on the competition, but what would the optimal lineup look like? 

Here’s one take:

Lineup

  1. Bobby Witt Jr. (R)
  2. Kyle Schwarber (L)
  3. Aaron Judge (R)
  4. Cal Raleigh (B)
  5. Bryce Harper (L)
  6. Alex Bregman (R)
  7. Gunnar Henderson (L)
  8. Byron Buxton (R)
  9. Corbin Carroll (L)

So, how would that look defensively?

Outfield

LF: Corbin Carroll 
CF: Byron Buxton
RF: Aaron Judge

You could certainly make the case to get Pete Crow-Armstrong’s defense in center field — he  might end up platooning with Buxton — but I like the idea of having two strong defenders and potential base-stealers in PCA and Brice Turang off the bench to deploy as needed in the later innings. Judge is an obvious lock in right. Carroll had a 140 OPS+ in a 30-30 season in 2025. Buxton had a 137 OPS+ in 2024 and a nearly identical mark last year (136) in a 30-20 season and career year.

Infield

1B: Bryce Harper 
2B: Gunnar Henderson 
SS: Bobby Witt, Jr. 
3B: Alex Bregman 
C: Cal Raleigh 
DH: Kyle Schwarber 

After missing the 2023 competition coming off Tommy John surgery, Harper, who played for Team USA’s 16U and 18U teams, will cherish this opportunity. Sure, it might look a little wacky putting Henderson at second base. He hasn’t played the position since he came up as a rookie in 2022, and it’s probably more likely that Turang gets most of the opportunities there when the games begin. DeRosa could platoon the right-handed Witt and the left-handed Henderson at shortstop or Bregman and Henderson at third. But if it’s about fielding the best lineup, it’s hard to argue against finding a way to keep Witt, Henderson and Bregman all in the lineup. Raleigh and Schwarber need little explanation after leading the AL and NL, respectively, in home runs last year. Smith will be able to give Raleigh a spell behind the plate throughout the tournament. 

Paul Skenes or Tarik Skubal? Either way, prepare to see some heat (Getty Images) <!–>

–>

Rotation 

LHP Tarik Skubal
RHP Paul Skenes 
RHP Logan Webb
RHP Joe Ryan 

Swingmen/other options

LHP Matthew Boyd
RHP Nolan McLean
RHP Clay Holmes
RHP Michael Wacha
LHP Clayton Kershaw

There are far more options to start games than DeRosa will need — at the last tournament, USA used just four starters — so he’ll likely save Skubal and Skenes for the most important ones. It’ll be interesting to see which one gets the start in the final if USA makes it that far. There’s no wrong choice. 

If its Mason Miller time, it means it will tough task for WBC opponents. (Meg McLaughlin / The San Diego Union-Tribune) <!–>

–>

Bullpen

RHP Mason Miller
RHP David Bednar 
RHP Griffin Jax
RHP Brad Keller
RHP Garrett Whitlock 
LHP Gabe Speier
LHP Garrett Cleavinger

Everyone wants to watch Miller blow 103 mph four-seamers past amateur athletes to finish off games, right? My guess is he earns the majority of save opportunities, but Bednar is another strong option, and lefties Speier and Cleavinger give DeRosa answers for any lineup he faces. Not bad!

Is Shohei Ohtani Playing In The 2026 World Baseball Classic?

Shohei Ohtani was the star of the 2023 World Baseball Classic.

As Japan’s leading man, Ohtani hit .435/.606/.739 (1.345 OPS) with 10 hits, 4 doubles, 1 home run, and 8 RBIs. He also went 2–0 on the mound with a 1.86 ERA, 11 strikeouts in 9â…” innings, and a save opposite of his former Los Angeles Angels teammate Mike Trout in the ninth inning of the championship game against the United States. Ohtani’s outstanding performances earned him the tournament’s MVP award.

Will Ohtani join Japan as it attempts to repeat for the first time since it made history in 2006 and 2009, or will he stay home following his first full two-way season with the Los Angeles Dodgers? Here’s everything we know:

Is Shohei Ohtani playing in the 2026 World Baseball Classic?

Yes, Shohei Ohtani was named to Japan’s 30-man roster for the 2026 World Baseball Classic. This will mark Ohtani’s third time representing Japan at the World Baseball Classic, also doing so in 2017 and 2023.

Is Shohei Ohtani pitching in the 2026 World Baseball Classic?

No, the 31-year-old ace will not pitch in the 2026 World Baseball Classic, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts revealed in January. Instead, Ohtani will only serve as Samurai Japan’s designated hitter. The decision was made by Ohtani, according to Roberts.

Who will pitch for Japan at the 2026 World Baseball Classic?

Dodgers ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto is expected to star for Japan on the mound during the 2026 World Baseball Classic. Yamamoto pitched in two games for Japan at the 2023 World Baseball Classic, recording 12 strikeouts and allowing just two runs. Yamamoto returns to the World Baseball Classic as a bona fide superstar and a two-time World Series champion.

World Baseball Classic: Who Is On Team USA’s Roster?

The reigning AL MVP in Aaron Judge. Both reigning Cy Young winners in Tarik Skubal and Paul Skenes. Plenty of All-Stars, big names and even a recently retired legend.

Team USA is looking for redemption when the World Baseball Classic begins next month.

After coming up short in the 2023 edition against superstar Shohei Ohtani and Japan, the USA will try to turn the tables this time around. Here is the USA’s roster for the tournament, which begins on March 5 and culminates with the March 17 championship. 

Pitchers

The pitching roster includes Clayton Kershaw, the Dodgers great who retired after this season. He was a three-time World Series winner with the Dodgers and won three Cy Young awards while also taking home the 2014 NL MVP award. This will be the first time that Kershaw will participate in the World Baseball Classic.

Along with Aaron Judge, the roster includes some big bats in Cal Raleigh and Kyle Schwarber. Raleigh had a historic season with 60 homers for the Mariners, the most ever by a catcher. Schwarber had 56 home runs for the Phillies and now has over 300 homers in his career.  Paul Goldschmidt, who last played for the Yankees, is another former MVP who won the award with the Cardinals in 2022.

4 Takeaways From the World Baseball Classic Roster Announcements

Baseball’s biggest and best international competition is just around the corner. 

Rosters were officially unveiled Thursday night for the World Baseball Classic, as the 20-team tournament will return in March with a record 78 MLB All-Stars taking part. 

Before Samurai Japan tries to defend its title, here are four takeaways following the roster announcement: 

1. Team USA, with its best group ever assembled, should be the favorites

–>

Samurai Japan has dominated the international game, winning the WBC three times, and will be returning 10 players from its 2023 championship team. Japan’s roster is littered with both MLB talents — nine big-league players on the roster — and NPB standouts, including Sawamura Award winner Hiromi Itoh. Until proven otherwise, they’re the kings, even without Shohei Ohtani, Roki Sasaki, Shota Imanaga or Yu Darvish on the mound in this year’s competition. 

But the favorite for 2026? It has to be USA’s Dream Team.

The success and joy of the 2023 WBC not only brought more eyeballs to international competition but also motivated some of the sport’s best players to get involved. Nowhere is that clearer than the pitching staff that USA manager Mark DeRosa will get to oversee.

USA upgraded from a rotation of Merrill Kelly, Lance Lynn, Adam Wainwright and Nick Martinez in 2023 to American League Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal, National League Cy Young Award winner Paul Skenes and All-Stars Logan Webb and Joe Ryan for this year’s tournament. You could field another WBC-worthy rotation with the starting options behind them on USA’s bench (Matt Boyd, Michael Wacha, Nolan McLean, Clay Holmes and Clayton Kershaw), and both Mason Miller and David Bednar are there to shut the door on any opponent.

–>

The lineup, meanwhile, is seeing its own infusion of talent as AL MVP Aaron Judge enters the fold as USA’s captain. He’ll be joined by AL MVP runner-up Cal Raleigh, Bryce Harper, Corbin Carroll, Byron Buxton, Alex Bregman, Gunnar Henderson and more. Bobby Witt Jr., who led MLB in hits last year, is back to try to avenge USA’s 2023 finals defeat. Kyle Schwarber, who led the NL with 56 home runs, is back, too. Pete Crow-Armstrong and Brice Turang add both speed and defense. The bench for Team USA could be its own All-Star team. However DeRosa wants to order it, it’s by far the most talented group USA has entered into competition. 

We won’t get another Ohtani vs. Mike Trout matchup to close out the finals — Ohtani will only be hitting for Japan, and Trout isn’t on USA’s squad this year — but the talent is so deep in this year’s tournament that new magical moments are sure to arise. 

Speaking of the talent in this year’s field…

2. Dominican Republic looks poised to bounce back after a disappointing 2023 showing

–>

The biggest surprise of the 2023 WBC wasn’t that Japan bested the United States but that the Dominican Republic, with a team chock-full of stars, including Juan Soto, Julio Rodriguez, Manny Machado, Ketel Marte, Rafael Devers and Jeremy Peña, didn’t even make it out of pool play. 

It’s hard to see that happening again, even in a pool that includes another championship contender in Venezuela and a Netherlands offense that will feature Xander Bogaerts, Jurickson Profar, Ceddanne Rafaela and Ozzie Albies.

Not only is the Dominican Republic’s offense brimming with even more talent — Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Fernando Tatis Jr., Junior Caminero, Geraldo Perdomo and Oneil Cruz will be among the many standouts joining Soto, Rodriguez, Machado, Marte and Peña this go-around — but the rotation should also be much better now that Cristopher Sanchez, Luis Severino and Brayan Bello will be joining Sandy Alcantara. The team is stacked, and now it should be motivated, too.

3. The “Big 3” should maybe be a “Big 4” 

Ronald Acuña Jr. in 2025 (Photo by Edward M. Pio Roda/Getty Images) <!–>

–>

In a pool that included heavyweights Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico in the 2023 WBC, Venezuela went 4-0. A quarterfinal battle with USA awaited, and it took an eighth-inning, go-ahead grand slam from Trea Turner for the U.S. team to emerge victorious. Three years later, Venezuela looks like an even more complete team, despite Jose Altuve being unable to get insured for the tournament. 

The Venezuela outfield of Ronald Acuña Jr., Jackson Chourio and Wilyer Abreu and the catching tandem of William Contreras and captain Salvador Perez will be among the best in the field. The infield is stacked with MLB talent. Maikel Garcia is coming off an All-Star and Gold Glove campaign in Kansas City, Willson Contreras adds more power to the group, and Eugenio Suárez, Andrés Gimenez, Gleyber Torres and Luis Arraez are all returning from a 2023 team that produced an .835 OPS in the last tournament. 

Now, Venezuela has the pitching staff to match with Pablo Lopez and Ranger Suarez forming a dynamic duo at the top of the rotation and Daniel Palencia and Jose Alvarado available for the late innings. Venezuela, Puerto Rico and Mexico, which made it to the semifinals in the last tournament, are the top contenders behind the fearsome threesome of USA, Japan and the Dominican Republic.

4. Canada and Italy are among sleepers with pieces to make a run  

The top teams in this tournament are just so stacked that it’s hard to imagine that teams such as Brazil, Nicaragua and the Czech Republic — as much fun as this group of amateurs was to watch in the last tourney — going all the way. The rosters of USA, Japan and Dominican Republic (and Venezuela, Mexico and Puerto Rico behind them) are just too stacked.

–>

Still, you could make the case for a number of teams to go on a surprise run, as Cuba and Mexico did in the last tournament all the way to the semifinals. This is Canada’s best chance to make it out of the first round, even with Freddie Freeman not playing in this year’s tournament. The team has a litany of big-league talents, from the Naylor brothers to Otto Lopez, Tyler O’Neill, Edouard Julien and Liam Hicks, a dynamic outfielder in Denzel Clarke, an up-and-coming talent in Owen Caissie and enough MLB pitchers to garner some belief, especially since the team gets to avoid USA and Mexico in pool play. The San Juan pool (Puerto Rico, Cuba, Canada, Panama, Colombia) looks as up-for-grabs as any group in the tournament. Speaking of that pool, don’t sleep on a Panama group with Ivan Herrera, Jose Caballero, Edmundo Sosa, Miguel Amaya and Guardians starter Logan Allen. 

Italy has a much tougher draw — the team would have to stun either USA or Mexico to advance — but after making it to the quarterfinals in the last tournament, it’s a young club on the rise led by captain Vinnie Pasquantino. Recent top prospects turned big leaguers are sprinkled throughout the roster, from Jac Caglianone to Kyle Teel to Jakob Marsee, and now Italy has its best ever frontline arm with Aaron Nola joining the group.

8 World Baseball Classic Matchups We Can’t Wait To See

The United States is bringing its most talented roster ever to the 2026 World Baseball Classic with the hope of avenging its loss to three-time champions Japan in the 2023 championship game.

USA vs. Japan Highlights | 2023 World Baseball Classic Championship

USA vs. Japan Highlights | 2023 World Baseball Classic Championship

But first, the two powerhouses will go through a gauntlet in the pool stage with the competition being as fierce and widespread as it has ever been.

Here are 10 games that will be appointment viewing in the poool stage of the 2026 World Baseball Classic:

United States vs. Brazil (March 6, 5 p.m. on FOX)

<!–>

The U.S. will open its tournament against Brazil, which is making its first appearance at the tournament since 2013. Brazil went 3-1 in qualifying and secured the final spot in the tournament with a 6-4 win against Germany. Veteran infielder Leonardo Reginatto poses the biggest threat to the U.S., with the 34-year-old going 5-for-13 in qualifiers with three doubles and four RBIs.

Great Britain vs. United States (March 7, 5 p.m. on FOX)

–>

Jazz Chisholm Jr. is representing Great Britain at the World Baseball classic, and the New York Yankees star is no stranger to the stars of the United States. In fact, he will go up against two of his Yankees teammates, Aaron Judge and David Bednar, and two of his New York Mets rivals, Nolan McLean and Clayton Holmes.

Japan vs. South Korea (March 7, 2 a.m. on FS1)

<!–>

A historic rivalry will have its latest chapter at the Tokyo Dome in the pool stage. Japan crushed South Korea 13-4 in their last meeting at the tournament in 2023, with two-way superstar and 2023 World Baseball Classic MVP Shohei Ohtani leading the way for Japan. But South Korea now has its own phenom in 22-year-old Do-yeong Kim, who was named KBO MVP in 2024 after finishing the season with 38 home runs and 40 stolen bases.

Netherlands vs. Dominican Republic (March 8, 9 a.m. on FS2)

–>

The Dominican Republic has the third-best odds to win the World Baseball Classic, and for good reason. Its roster is stacked with Major League talent, headlined by New York Mets star Juan Soto. The Dominican Republic didn’t advance past the group pool in 2023, but the six-time Silver Slugger was a standout performer, going 6-for-15 at the plate with two home runs.

Cuba vs. Puerto Rico (March 9, 4 p.m. on FS1)

<!–>

This won’t just be a battle of heavyweights; it very well could determine who advances out of a tough Pool A that also features Canada, Panama and Colombia. New Los Angeles Dodgers ace Edwin Diaz will star on the mound for Puerto Pico, while eight-time All-Star Nolan Arenado will make his debut for Puerto Rico in 2026 after representing the U.S. in 2023.

Mexico vs. United States (March 9, 5 p.m. on FOX)

–>

If the United States wants to finish at the top of Pool B, it will once again have to go through one of its oldest rivals in sports: Mexico. Led by Seattle Mariners star Randy Arozarena, Mexico finished ahead of the U.S. in 2023 pool play with a 3-1 record and 27 runs. Mexico made it to the semifinals but fell to Japan 6-5 in an instant classic. The U.S. might be out for revenge, but so too is Mexico.

United States vs. Italy (March 10, 6 p.m. on FS1)

<!–>

Italy might not be one of the favorites to win the 2026 World Baseball Classic, but that was also the case when it made a surprise run to the quarterfinals in 2023. Now led by 2009 World Series champion Francisco Cervelli, Italy is in an even better position to make a deep run, and the U.S. will serve as a measuring stick for the Italians.

Dominican Republic vs. Venezuela (March 11, 5 p.m. on FS1)

–>

The matchup between the Dominican Republic and Venezuela marks the only time in pool play that two teams with top-five odds to win the tournament will go head-to-head. Venezuela went 4-0 in pool play in 2023, which included a 5-1 win over the Dominican Republic. It reached the quarterfinals before losing to the U.S. 9-7 on a Trea Turner grand slam. Expect Ronaldo Acuna Jr. and Co. to be motivated going into this year’s tournament.
