The Venezuelan infielder born in Montreal, Canada, Abraham Toro dreams of representing Venezuela in the next World Baseball Classic, scheduled for 2023. In a conversation with the American network ESPN, Toro, 25, said that he hopes to have a good year in the Major Leagues, so that, later, he can receive the call up to the Venezuelan national team.

 

 Asked if Canada calls him for his team, the Seattle Mariners player acknowledged that it will be a difficult decision, but deep down "I want to play with Venezuela." "As a child I grew up under the Venezuelan culture," he stressed.

 

 About his childhood team, he stressed that he fondly remembers the Montreal Expos. "My favorite player was Vladimir Guerrero," he revealed.

 

 Already in a joking tone, he stressed that he does not remember Manny Acta, currently Seattle's bench coach, serving as the Expos' third-base coach.
