This post was inspired by a couple of things. First, David Ortiz and Minnie Minoso being elected to the hall, and a suggestion by one of our readers on my post about Larry Doby. The Dominican, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, have all contributed many players to the big leagues. But Mexico, Panama, and Columbia have also sent players to the majors.
By country here are the counts, these are players on the 26 man rosters as of the beginning of last season. Dominican, 126, Venezuela, 101, Puerto Rico, 30, Cuba, 27, Mexico, 17, Columbia, 11 and Panama, 9.
