There are some good players from the Netherlands (Antiles) who play in the MLB. Four of them are still in the play-offs. Who do you want if they would be available.
I think I know who will finish last...
(I hope it's ok to add this thread here, since the off season started yesterday)

Bogaerts is by far the best player, so him. He's not available though. Gregorius would be a solid replacement for Arcia. None of the others would interest me or aren't available.

There's no point in a poll if one guy gets 100% of the votes.

The Netherlands are surprisingly good in many sports, for such a small country. Three times in the World cup final, Olympic champion in volleyball (1996) and even World champion in baseball (2011). There are not many European players in the MLB, I guess. Holland becomes European champion in baseball almost every time. It’s not a big sport in Europe at all.
Most of these Dutch guys are from the Antiles. Only Gregorius was born in Amsterdam. But it is still special a lot of them are important players on good teams.
With basketball it’s totally different. A big sport in Europe, many European players in the NBA, but the Netherlands are very bad. And always were. A Dutch player in the NBA is much more rare.
