              Mexico, Puerto Rico, Venezuela and Dominicana have strong winter leagues, with a few MLB players. The main Cuba league also plays on winter.

              In summer, Japan, Mexico and Korea are the best known. Cuba has a short summer season.

                  Yes, there is a league in Italy. I remember that in the 80s, when most players refused to play in the Mexican League and formed a players league (ANABE), the leaders were never allowed back after the players league folded, so a few went to play in Italy.

                      canada has independent leagues across the country, with ontario having the mos former mlb pros and some young prospects who are waiting to get drafted.
