The 2023 World Baseball Classic has already begun, although the United States team filled with big names will start officially competing later this week.
The thing that will perhaps most stand out about this roster when you look at it is the number of awesome relievers from Adam Ottavino to Ryan Pressly to David Bednar to Devin Williams. But there’s also a sick lineup with big names like JT Realmuto, Nolan Arenado, Trea Turner, Paul Goldschmidt, Mookie Betts and Mike Trout. And there are plenty of other stars who may not even make the opening game lineup.
