The BEST MLB Player From Every Country

[@BlakeRobins0n]

I somehow missed Juan Soto for the DR. He would have easily been the pick there

[@danlewellen7883]

Just saw this after making my comment lol

[@MalteZocher-ol7tr]

Also Albies I think hit over 30 HR

[@luishumbertovega3900]

Not even mentioned... 😮🇩🇴

[@bmac4]

To be fair, Jrod has been worth 0.4 more bWAR and 1.9 rWAR in about 30 fewer games over the last two seasons. I'd probably go with Soto in a more holistic approach but a case could be made for Julio that wouldn't get you laughed out of the room. The true snub is not mentioning him at all in this video.

[@compile3938]

And then, the best baseball players on this planet is... Of course OHTANI!!!

[@lindacoy7165]

The amount of talent from the Dominican Republic is wild. I knew Dubón was a lock for Honduras, and was of course excited to see Yordan Alvarez for Cuba.

[@otom2007]

It may be difficult to pick the best baseball player in each country, but no one would argue that Ohtani is the best baseball player in Japan. That is how outstanding Ohtani is in Japan!

[@BlakeRobins0n]

He's the best!

[@raquelcastrorubio5081]

finally someone else said that isaac paredes is underrated bro is a monster

[@Obuge]

It will be tough choosing the best MLB player in Japan. Because a lot of Good players from there. Such as Ichiro, Darvish, Ohtani, etc…

[@keisukeh1066]

難しくないですよ。大谷一択です。 この動画の選出は現役選手だからイチローは除外されるが、仮にイチローが現役であっても大谷がベストです。

[@ところてんところの]

大谷の能力はとてもすごいですが、イチローの怪我を全くしないという特技は大谷もマネできないものですよ。なので誰が日本一かどうかは部門で決める必要があると思いますよ。

[@keisukeh1066]

@@ところてんところの ここではおそらく直近2.3年の成績でベストを判断していると思います。 もしかしたら去年の成績だけかもですが。 英語わからないから断定できないけど、どれだけ遡っても直近3年以内でしょうね。 こういうのをKZbinチャンネルで決める場合だいたいそうなので。 もちろん仰る通り怪我も考慮します。 だけど大谷の2.3年、あるいは怪我した去年だけの成績を対象にしても大谷でしょう。 怪我しても満票MVPでしたから。 ベッツを選んでる時点で怪我したトラウトやジャッジは除外って判断でしょうね。 キャリアを通じてならベッツよりトラウトを選んでも不思議ではないので、直近2.3年と考えるのが自然ですね。 イチローの怪我しないというのは凄いけど、直近2.3年の話なら関係ないですからね。おそらく。 怪我した去年の大谷と、2004年262安打のイチローを比較しても大谷が上です。 いずれにしても現役じゃないのになぜイチローを比較対象にするのかよくわからないですが。

Thank you! Didn’t even purposefully snub him, I somehow missed him when scrolling through all players born there. He definitely would have been my pick

Yeah I don’t know how I missed him honestly lol

[@Jacobthekid28]

​@BlakeRobins0n Idk I'd say it's a toss up. Sure, Soto is the better hitter but I'd argue that J-Rod is the more complete player.

[@BlakeRobins0n]

Thank you! I was in a rush on this video and couldn’t do that sadly. I do that on most of my videos though

[@jonnyt16]

Australian baseball players seem to be pretty feisty. Before Liam Hendriks, there was another pitcher from Australia in the MLB who was even more aggressive by the name of Grant Balfour. He was really fiery and never backed down from a fight. I enjoyed watching him play when he was with the A's.

[@BlakeRobins0n]

I remember A’s fans always going nuts when Balfour came into games! Miss that era of baseball

[@theodorickim]

It's a really good video! I hope this video gets longer and longer because of more players from different countries.

[@BlakeRobins0n]

Thank you! I would love to do an all-time best player from every country video one day

[@northstarjakobs]

I do love how this video contains both countries that have single-digit representatives in the Majors and then you have the United States. Though, these videos end up highlighting a lot of hidden gem players who are good but not great, or are overshadowed by better players on their team or who play their position.

[@BlakeRobins0n]

I made a video on the best players from every state separately because of how many players are from there

[@luishumbertovega3900]

Satisfied with the selected player from my country 🇵🇷, Francisco Lindor.

[@michaelrotter1134]

We will see if Kim will hang on in your list with the acquisition of Lee by the Giants

[@BlakeRobins0n]

I think he will. His defense is probably what puts him over the top

[@lht2007]

As a Korean baseball fan, Lee is a better hitter than Kim but Kim's defense is just outstanding player. So I would take Kim over Lee.

[@adamovellucci2376]

The fact arraez wasn’t considered with altuve is craz

[@BlakeRobins0n]

Freddie freeman is Canadian

[@NN.baseball]

[@CorbinCross07]

[@BlakeRobins0n]

Thank you! I’m looking at his stats now and I have zero clue where I got 25 home runs from lol

[@rellimnahtan]

Huh. In my head I was totally convinced that Freddie Freeman was Canadian. It's probably his big friendly face and overall demeanor. So for a moment I was kind of offended that you put Vladdy over obvious Canadian hero Freddie Freeman.

unpopular belief in the comment section, but i agree with selecting betts over judge. judge is obviously a better power hitter, but with all the things considered, it’d go w/ betts imo

[@jamesrichardson381]

Off topic...bu t knowing how irritating many people can be Im glad Acuna decided not to just be happy with 40 steals. Seeing as how the new rule change in base size and pick offs has led to a lot of these haters trying to downplay what he achieved. He apparently decided he would steal so many bags and push the record so far ahead of what it had been no one could argue the rules were the reason. If I hear one more person say it was 6 inches shorter distance ill lose it. It's pretty simple (you would think) it's 4.5 inches not 6 as 2nd base was still centered in line with home plate. 40/70...40/70...? It just doesn't seem real. Before he did it many people argued we may never see another 40/40 season and he goes out and does that, then starts new clubs 40/50, 40/60 & 40/70. I still watch the clip of the Cubs announcers bitching when he stole #70 just to get pissed off. Boog took a beautiful moment an accomplishment like no other and proceeded to take the attention away from Acuna and put it on his own fat ass. Im not positive but im pretty sure When Sammy Sosa passed Maris they might have stopped the game to acknowledge the moment. Did he bitch about that? Hell at least with Acuna he was the first to do something, unlike Sosa who had already seen the other guy in his division chasing down Maris' record McGwire break it previously. What a little whiny twat. He was just pissy because his Cubs came into town with playoff hopes and the Braves didn;t have much else to play for and yet they still got spanked.
