Baseball's
Thrity Greatest Foreign Players - A look at foreign stars by
Craig Tomarkin.
Factoid... In 2002, 222 of the 849 players (26.1%) on opening day
MLB rosters were born outside of the United States. And, 2,865 of the
5,781 players (49.6%) signed to minor league contracts were foreign born.
If it weren't for immigration laws, there would be even more
foreign MLB talent. Source: NY Times.
