 * Is there any chance we could get a total number of players who have defected from Cuba in the hook? Other than that, it looks fine. Go   Phightins  !  22:58, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, I counted 48 players through a head count in the list, so I guess this would be the hook:

 * To be truthful, we can't get a number right now. I'm finding more and more examples through my research. I just came across Euclides Rojas, who needs to be added. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:07, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Since we cannot get a firm number, the first hook is fine. Go   Phightins  !  20:33, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Something like "... that over 40 baseball players..." would work if a number is desired. --ThaddeusB (talk) 01:45, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, or something like "dozens of baseball players"; I thought of that too. Either way. Go   Phightins  !  01:46, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
