Filed July 1, 2023.</em></p> <p>There are several Europeans having relative success in the Florida State League, including an award winner, while a number of young players making their professional debuts in Arizona, Florida, and the Dominican Republic. Several others across the minors are suffering through long-term injuries and have yet to appear or been sidelined for the foreseeable future. In total, 31 players from Europe are rostered for the 2023 season, though that number should increase as a result of the European Development Tournament, held at Farnham Park in Slough, England, in advance of London Series 2023.</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline">Key</span><br /> Name (age*), organization, country, team.<br /> *Age is as of Sept 1, 2023 (playing age this season).</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline">MLB (1)</span><br /> <strong>Max Kepler (30)</strong>, Minnesota Twins. Germany.<br /> Kepler has played 57 games around two injured list stints. The lefty from Berlin is hitting .211 with 11 home runs and a .280 OBP. He has 43 strikeouts and 15 walks. Kepler has a team option for 2024, but the guaranteed portion of his contract with the Twins ends at the end of this season.</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline">Triple-A (1)</span><br /> <strong>Didi Gregorius (33)</strong>, Seattle Mariners. Netherlands.<br /> Released on Aug. 4, 2022 by the Phillies, Gregorius—long the very first player on this list—returned to winter ball for the first time since his prospect days, this time in search of a new contract. When the calendar turned to June, the Dutch shortstop was in the midst of a Mexican League-MVP season for the Algodoneros de Union Laguna. Only 33, Gregorius had popped 11 home runs in 117 plate appearances as part of a .359/.431/.777 line. Those numbers, combined with strong defense at shortstop, attracted the attention of the Mariners, who signed him to a minor league contract on June 8. On June 30, Gregorius was assigned to the Tacoma Mariners, for whom he had not yet appeared as of July.</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline">Double-A (1)</span><br /> <strong>Sem Robberse (21)</strong>, Toronto Blue Jays. Netherlands. New Hampshire Fisher Cats.<br /> Robberse has an 0-5 record in 14 starts, pitching 67.1 innings to date. He has 26 walks and 66 strikeouts with 54 hits allowed for a batting average against of only .213.</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline">High-A (5)</span><br /> <strong>Darryl Collins (21)</strong>, Kansas City Royals. Netherlands. Quad Cities River Bandits.<br /> The elder Collins brother has 23 games at the High-A level, but has been on the 60-day injured list since June 1. He is hitting .244 with four stolen bases.<br /> <strong>Adam Macko (22)</strong>, Toronto Blue Jays. Slovakia/Ireland. Vancouver Canadians.<br /> The left-handed pitcher was born and learned baseball in Slovakia before living several formative years in Ireland, after which his family moved to Canada, from where he was drafted. This season, Macko has started 11 games, throwing 46.2 innings with a 2-4 record and 5.98 ERA. He has walked 20 and struck out 50.<br /> <strong>Shervyen Newton (24)</strong>, Kansas City Royals. Netherlands. Quad Cities River Bandits.<br /> After six seasons in the Mets’ organization, Newton moved to the Royals, who returned him to High-A, where he finished the 2022 season. The 2023 season has been a struggle thus far, though he is on pace to set a career high for home runs amidst a .150/.233/.299 line.
