2023 World Baseball Classic’s biggest standouts

2. Trea Turner, SS, USA

After signing a megadeal with Philadelphia, Turner was the best player on the tournament’s most stacked roster. The shortstop has only hit 20 home runs twice in his eight-year career, yet he hit five home runs in six games for the U.S. A potential storyline for 2023 could be if Turner can continue these types of power numbers at Citizens Bank Park.
