A gaggle of MVPs, Cy Young Award winners and a few others almost certain to be so honored in the future will come together for the USA’s World Baseball Classic squad after rosters were announced Feb. 5.
Reigning AL MVP Aaron Judge and two-time NL MVP Bryce Harper, along with both current Cy Young Award winners, Tarik Skubal and Paul Skenes, highlight a star-studded squad that will aim to take home the first WBC title for the USA since 2017.
Cal Raleigh, the 60-home run hitting catcher, and Kyle Schwarber, who slammed an NL-best 56 for the Philadelphia Phillies in 2025, further deepen the lineup.
