List of Nations by Number of Players in MLB 2020 Start

BBGiovanni · 06-14-2020, 12:15 PM

While putting a tournament together, I made a list of nations by number of players (5 or more) from that nation and thought it might be useful for people planning something on paper/outside the game. It also will let you predict what nations the game will pick if you enable auto-selection for a tournament. I assume some players are counted twice by nationality, but I didn't verify; this is the raw number the engine uses to count players.

US, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Japan, Venezuela: over 1000

South Korea: 926
Mexico: 702
Netherlands: 355
Taiwan: 302
Puerto Rico: 287
Italia: 234
Canada: 210
Australia: 162
Colombia: 147
Panama: 126
Curacao: 75
Nicaragua: 50
Brazil: 36
England: 33
Israel: 31

China: 28
Bahamas: 28
Aruba: 26
Greece: 24
Spain:24*

New Zealand: 23
France: 17*
Germany: 16*
Czech Republic: 16*

Phillipines: 15
Brunei: 15
South Africa: 14
Belgium: 9
US Virgin Islands: 9
Andorra: 7
Haiti: 7
Ireland: 6
American Samoa: 5

Hope someone finds this useful. If I made any major errors let me know and I'll edit the list.

*= I didn't include the minor European leagues (Czech, France, Germany, Spain) but I assume that like Italia they'd add about 200 players to each nation if included.
