It's basically an MLB all star team vs. a sprinkling of MLB players, with a star or two on other teams. Mexico's best, Arozarena is the 15th best outfielder projected for offense this year. Japan's Nootbaar is a third tier outfielder though on the rise, and Yoshida has some expecting 25 HR's for Boston in his MLB debut. Of course, Ohtani is studly.
The players love it and Diaz has no regrets last I read. But you know MLB management detests it.
