I think that for all countries where we don't have enough information about the baseball players they produce, the game should resort to stereotypes. For example, the French could be really good at running, particularly when they are running away from something else. A tag, for example. New Zealand is the land of the hobbits so New Zealanders should have above-average plate discipline (due to their tiny stances). And so on. This would make people who are not from baseball-rich countries feel good about themselves because they are being counted.
