If I am correct, 1 out 4 Major League Baseball players are Hispanics, but which teams have the most.  It doesn't  matter to me, just curious.

I think Chicken boy needs to change his name to chicken head. What kind of response is that, I don't believe you are being rude in any way asking this question. I am part Cuban married to a 100% proud Dominican man and we both love baseball. I would probably say if not the Angels then the Mets( I think Minaya is goin for it anyway). It is so hard to tell because the Latino and asian wave in MLB is great lately.

Sorry, but I don't play video games, so I don't know if this fits your criteria.  I think Albert Pujols of the St. Louis Cardinals is one of the purest players I've ever seen.  I'm not a fan of the team, but I think he's an amazing player.

i dont have the link, but i keep up with the teams. there r white players in the team just not very many. i suggest u google the schools and look up the rosters.

I would say very few, as baseball uses its farm system for developing players, not colleges (unlike football and basketball).  Of course, even football and basketball pros usually don't have degrees, but I'd say even fewer baseball players do.

its VERY rare that a team calls up a player from A ball to the majors, although from time to time players in AA get the call....dontrelle willis from the marlins is a great example of a player who went from AA to the majors with great success.\n\nGenerally, yes, the talent level at AAA is greater than at other levels, although sometimes AAA rosters are filled with several players who are "career" minor leaguers...ones that just dont have the "stuff" to play in the majors.   Often times AA has players with more sheer "talent", but those players just dont yet have enough experience to be able to succeed at the major league level.\n\nteams assign players to the different levels of the minor league system first by experience.  nearly every player starts out in a rookie league or low level A team.  the very best players however will quickly advance thru levels, opften times being promoted twice or more in their first couple of seasons.  promotions after that are based on the players production and talent and the immediate needs of the major league club.\n\nin addtion to teams using the minor leagues to eventually fill their own mlb roster, minor leaguers are very often used in trades.  if you check out the mlb transactions, you will see that a large percentage of teams when trading players will include minor leaguers.  teams often will trade high level mlb talent for another teams "top" minor league prospects.  its always a guessing game as to which team got the better deal...sometimes it takes years to actually and accurately gauge it.\n\nalmost all teams have "good" affialtes.  there are literally hundreds of minor league teams......chances are you are within 30-60 miles of one(not a guarantee, but a good chance)......check it out and go see a game soon......even if you dont like or root for the "parent" team, its fun to watch guys who play the game for next to no money and most oten are more available to the fan base for autographs and such, as compared to their mlb counterparts.....and just think how cool it would be to have watched a youngster in the minors perhaps become a well known major leaguer after a few years.\n\ni hope this cleared up some of your questions.

well if you are talking players that should be better than they are, then huff and sexson get my vote.\n\nfor the whole mlb, there are a couple players stinking it up:\nblanco is roughly 1 for his last 29.\nscutaro is 2/32\ndimitri young is also sucking

There were no African-Americans in the Major Leagues in 1920, so some could argue that the league was watered down with out the inclusion of some of those fine athletes.  Also, there were far less teams in Major League Baseball in 1920 than there are today, this could, in fact, be an arguement that it was more difficult to become a Major Leaguer in 1920 than today.  It is also important to bring up the salaries that the players receive for playing Major League Baseball.  For better or for worse, salaries in today's game are vastly larger than they ever were in 1920.  In 1920, many players had to have other jobs during the off season in order to make a living.  The off season training of today's athletes is also leaps and bounds ahead of where it was in 1920.  In 1920, the players simply played the game and didn't lift weight or watch what they ate.  Look at Babe Ruth for an example of this, he routinely crammed down hot dogs in between doubleheaders and was a notorious drinker.  Babe Ruth also probably never touched a weight in his life.  Could you imagine how he would have been if he had been on the sort of off season training regimine that today's athletes are on???  But that's another topic altogether.  Another thing to look at would be the pitchers statistics.  In 1920, pitchers were EXPECTED to finsh games that they started.  In today's games starting pitchers are credited with a "quality start" if they complete 6 innings.  The role of the bullpen and closers has also grown greatly since 1920 as a result of this.  An example of this would be how Bruce Sutter is the first solely relief pitcher to be elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame.  I hope that you got a few ideas from this, good luck with your paper. I would think you could whip it out no problem on this topic!

Dear fellow Met fan: I hate the Yankees because the BOSS spends oodles of money on players who don't bring him a championship. Back in the day before Steinbrenner got Giambi, ARod, etc; Jeter, Tino Martinez and Paul O'Neill helped bring the Yanks to multiple titles. I guess I don't hate the Yankees all that much, but I seriously dislike them. When the BOSS is out, then I'll give them a little more respect. The same respect I have for guys like Joe Torre.

Maybe NOT.  You should check other teams - Cardinals and Astros are definitely better in NL central.  Even Cubs could post better record the Brewers.  Other NL teams including Braves, Mets, Phillies (NL East), Giants and Dodgers (NL West) are all competitive for the playoffs.  Moreover, Brewers are in a very strong division, which is bad to them.

Good Question:\n\nNL (starters):\nC: Johnny Estrada: 6HR, 45RBI, .315AVG\n1B: Pujols: no need for numbers\n2B: Chase Utley\nSS: Jose Reyes: tablesetter; he scares me.\n3B: D. Wright: his catch early season was sick...and he can hit.\nOF #1: Berkman\nOF#2: Beltran\nOF#3: Carlos Lee\nNL (2nd teamers)\nC: David Ross: 100 less AB's to McCann better numbers in everything except AVG.\n1B: Nomar\n2B: Dan Uggla\nSS: Freddy Sanchez\n3B: Miguel Cabrera: big numbers, small amount of protection in that lineup.\nOF#1: Andruw Jones\nOF#2: Soriano\nOF#3: Dunn: This is only because I really wanted to see him in the homerun derby. Holliday deserves it.\n\nSP: Brandon Webb\n\nAL starters: \n\nC: Mauer\n1B: Ortiz (Playing in NL park)\n2B: Least deserving all star postion on both leagues. I'll take Jose Lopez.\nSS: Tejada\n3B: A-Rod\nOF#1: Dye\nOF#2: Wells\nOF#3: Ramirez\n\nSP: Liriano: He has 1/2 the amount of starts as other pitcher and all of his numbers are top 10 or better. Plus if you're on the AL team and you have a shot at World Series Home field advantage do you really want Rogers 3.65+ ERA on the mound? Most of the NL has hit off of him several times. Liriano hasn't faced but a few of the NL hitters and most of them have seen him less than 5 times.\nAL Second stringers\nC: Ramon Hernandez: 15HR 61RBI--how many catchers have ever put up these numbers before all-star break?\n1B: Haffner or Thome? Gotta go Thome because of teams overall record.\n2B: Brian Roberts: if it was up to me Lopez would be my only true 2B.\nSS: Jeter: Glue that has held that team together after all of their injuries\n3B: Crede: I would take similiar RBI's and better defense compared to Glaus.\nOF#1: Crawford: I love extremely fast guys who hit for power and high average\nOF#2: Rios\nOF#3: Vlad: His defense puts him over Mags\n\n*****If the fans (including myself) continue to vote Paul laaaaaduca into the all-star game I say fans should wave their right to decide the starters. Secondly; one rep from each team should be abolished.

I think it's one of those "trick" questions that actually has nothing to do with baseball.  I've seen this before, and they might be looking for a city that has less than nine people - get it?  Fell short of being able to field a team of 9 players?  I know that sounds dumb, but that's what I've seen given as the answer:\n\nhttp://www.duno.com/answer.php?qid=1804\n\nOne of the cities mentioned here, Guerra, did actually have 8 people according to the 2000 census:\n\nhttp://www.city-data.com/city/Guerra-Texas.html\n\nI'm pretty sure it's just a silly trick question.

whoa sweetie,\n\nyou're in the wrong section of answers for that.\n\nalthough I can tell you the best team in baseball right now:\n\nwhite sox!

The American League teams are just better in general.  If you look at the stats over the years and even this year you will see it.  Plus the Red Sox, Yankees, Tigers, White Sox are all better then the National Leagues best team.

It depends on what level you mean at. There are a number of teams that are affiliated to the Yankees in the various minor leagues.\n\nThe closest team to the Majors (Triple A) is the Columbus Clippers, but there are 6 altogether. The others are, in order (best first):\n\nTrenton Thunder (AA)\nTampa Yankees (A Adv)\nCharleston Riverdogs (A)\nStaten Island Yankees (SS)\nGCL Yankees (R)

There is something wrong if Derek Jeter does not win the MVP.  Yes David " The Baby" Ortiz had good numbers but Derek's numbers were just as impressive and they actually meant something.  Granted had Ortiz hit 70 Hr's he could be in the race but he doesnt play in the field and therefore only comtributes to the team half the time.  Derek hit over 300 and almost had 100 rbi from the 2 hole...that is no easy task.\n\nAs for the NL Ryan Howard has to take it. Pujols did have good numbers but he was injured for too long and Howards numbers are too impressive to ignore\n\nAL - Jeter\nNL - Howard

Babe Ruth played for both the Red Sox and the Yankees, as did Roger Clemens and now Johnny Damon plays for the Yankees.  They don't care.  It's just business.
