Five Dominicans are listed in USA Today’s Sports Weekly 2008 25-man roster. The yearly list features some of the best talent in baseball, and includes perennial Dominican All-stars Albert Pujols and Manny Ramirez as well as young stars Hanley Ramirez, Ervin Santana and Carlos Marmol. According to USA Today, “this is not an all-star team but rather a selection by editors and reporters of a realistic roster.”
