I wanted to do one final post on the Olympic Baseball Rosters. This post lists the former and active foreign players from both NPB and KBO who are on the rosters for the Dominican Republic, Israel, Mexico and the US.
Actually, Israel doesn't have any NPB or KBO players on their squad but the Dominican Republic has five, Mexico has four and Team USA features five.
The five players for the Dominican Republic are Jairo Asencio (Kia Tigers 2014), Juan Francisco (Yomiuri Giants 2015), CC Mercedes (Yomiuri Giants 2017-present), Angel Sanchez (SK Wyverns 2018-19, Yomiuri Giants 2020-present) and Raul Valdes (Chunichi Dragons 2015-17). I don't know of a KBO card for Asencio (mostly because
Dan hasn't done a Foreign Attack set for 2014 yet) but here are cards of the other players including both a KBO and NPB card for Sanchez:
