Milwaukee Brewers fans have a few choices when it comes to which team they will throw their support behind in the World Baseball Classic.

It might just boil down to who their favorite member of the 2026 Brewers is.

Or, of course, you can root for all the Brewers players until they end up going up against one another.

There will be 14 players from the Brewers' organization playing in this year's WBC, representing eight countries. You can add one more to each of those totals if you include a member of the 2025 team who is a current free agent.

The 30-player rosters were announced Thursday for all 20 WBC teams. The tournament begins on March 4.

Venezuela and Nicaragua lead the way with three members of the Crew. Venezuela, though, has the Brewers' star power in outfielder Jackson Chourio and catcher William Contreras as well as left-handed reliever Angel Zerpa, while Nicaragua's roster includes three minor-leaguers in right-handed starter Carlos Rodriguez, infielder Freddy Zamora, and right-hander Stiven Cruz.

Two countries have a pair of Brewers, as Canada has left-handed reliever Rob Zastryzny and minor-league infielder Tyler Black, while Great Britain includes minor-league right-handers Myles Langhorne and Jack Seppings.

Going it along are second baseman Brice Turang on the U.S., shortstop Joey Ortiz with Mexico, right-handed reliever Abner Uribe on the Dominican Republic, and 2025 first-round draft pick Andrew Fischer, a corner infielder, with Italy. Left-handed starter Jose Quintana, currently a free agent, will play for Colombia for a third time in the WBC.

Turang (US), Ortiz, and Fischer (Italy) are in Pool B in Houston, with Turang and Ortiz meeting on March 9. Italy faces the U.S. on March 10 and Mexico on March 11 to conclude group play. Also in their group are Brazil and Great Britain.

Pool D in Miami will have the largest representation by the Crew. That is where Chourio, Contreras, and Zerpa (Venezuela), Uribe (Dominican Republic), and Rodriguez and Zamora (Nicaragua) will be. Seeing Contreras and Chourio face Uribe on March 11 is a possibility.

Canada, with Zastryzny and Black, will be in San Juan, Puerto Rico, for Pool A. Cuba, Colombia, Panama, and host Puerto Rico are the other teams in that bracket.

The top two teams in each pool advance to the quarterfinals. The championship game ison  March 17 in Miami.
