Who are the Chicago Cubs in the World Baseball Classic?
By Eric Rubin
6. Seiya Suzuki, Japan
Seiya Suzuki is entering his 2nd year in the MLB and is expected to have a much better season than his rookie year. The right-fielder is hoping to make 2023 a breakout year and for him to help lead Team Japan deep into the tournament.
7. Javier Assad, Mexico
Javier Assad was in the Majors for a little while in 2022, appearing in 9 games with a 3.11 ERA and 1.46 WHIP. As it would be ideal to get those numbers down, the 25-year-old right-hander has a lot of potential and will be back in the majors at some point this season.
