After six years, the United States will defend its World Baseball Classic title with possibly its most talented roster in the event's history.
Three-time AL MVP Mike Trout and Clayton Kershaw, a three-time Cy Young Award winner, headline the stacked squad, and both are first-timers in the event.
The U.S. roster consists of winners of six MVPs, including defending NL MVP Paul Goldschmidt, a member of the 2017 squad.

The WBC began in 2006, with Japan winning that year and in 2009. The Dominican Republic took the crown in 2013, and the U.S. won four years later.
This WBC was originally slated for 2021 but was postponed due to the COVID pandemic.
