Kansas City Royals rookie Jac Caglianone has officially committed to represent Italy in the 2026 World Baseball Classic, joining teammate Vinnie Pasquantino as one of the first confirmed Major League Baseball players on the squad.
In a recent interview with former MLB player Carlos Baerga, Caglianone confirmed his decision, saying, “I’m gonna play with Italy because Puerto Rico reached out late. Only about a couple months ago. I’ve been talking to Italy for years about it. So, I’ve already committed.”
