Dominicans make up 10.7% of the 750 baseball players on the Major League Baseball rosters, as Listin Diario points out today. A total of 79 Dominicans are on the rosters, but there are several on the injured list. This means that 90 Dominicans could be playing ball this season. Of the group, 39 are pitchers and two are catchers.
Kansas City Royals is the team with the largest number of Dominicans on their roster, with six. Boston is second with five, and there are four Dominicans players in the Chicago Cubs, Pittsburgh Pirates, Washington Nationals, New York Mets, Cleveland Indians, Detroit Tigers and New York Yankees, making these the most popular teams for local fans.
