There are plenty of options I could’ve went with here, but I decided to go with the Yankees Superstar RF that broke the AL home run record last year with 62 home runs. An amazing record that probably won’t be broken for quite some time. He’s dealt with injuries this season, unfortunately, but when healthy, he is one of the best players in the entire MLB.

2 – Fernando Tatis Jr. (Dominican Republic, 118 Players)

Tatis Jr. is only 24 years old but he already has an All-Star appearance in 2021 and is a 2x All-MLB First Teamer in 2020 and 2021. He also led the NL in Home Runs in 2021 and was the Silver Slugger in 2020 and 2021. This season Tatis Jr. is batting .260 with 19 HRs. I see no reason as to why Tatis Jr. can’t continue to improve and represent the Dominican Republic well.
