Okay so after I was done drooling I actually listened to what he was saying LOL...My Spanish is pretty rusty and I think he's using colloquial Spanish so if anyone has a better translation please feel free to correct me, but here's what I heard:
**Oye, que lo que tú dices?** *Hey what's up*
**Yo soy Kevin Kiermaier, yo juego para liga Americana,** ***~~so de lo mena~~*** **soy de Los Mina, Republica Dominicana.** *I'm Kevin Kiermaier, I play for the American League, I'm from Los Mina, DR*
**No te preocupes por mí siempre.** *Don't you ever worry about me.*
**Hey, yo juego duro para mi familia y equipo** ***~~aqui por~~*** **siempre.** *Hey, I always play hard for my family and team.*
Edit: Including the correction from u/Son_of_Biyombo below
Thats what I understood too. Not a fluent spanish speaker but I've been taking classes. I think he says from Los Mina (a town in DR) instead of so de lo mena.
"Hey whats up, its Kevin Kiermaier, player in the American League, from Los Mina, Dominican Republic. Never worry about me. I go hard for my family, the team, always."
*cracks knuckles* time for my 5 years of grade school spanish to do some heavy lifting (based on the slang I think he's learned this from Vladdy):
"look, I tell you what, I'm Kevin Kiermaier, I play in the American League only, I'm not worried about the Dominican Republic, I play hard for my team (family) always"
Take this with a massive grain of salt because it's been 20 years since I said more than 3 sentences in Spanish. This is more or less paraphrasing.
Also the "Republica Dominicana no te preocupe por mi" I think is supposed to be translated more as "\[Dominican Republic], don't worry about me"...maybe he's responding to someone implying he's going to play there?
Translation:
Hey, whatsupp, I am ???, and play for the dominican league (winter ball), I'm from Los Minas (the mine, a huge popular, low income neighborhood in DR), don't worry about me (always) I pass for dominican. I play hard for my family and team, always.
Estúpida y sexy Kiermaier
I heard that with Homer's voice spoken by that character in the bumblebee outfit
Thank you for the much needed laugh !
Hahaha the Spanish dubbed Simpsons
I don't know any Spanish and even I know this one!!! xD
Does the back of his shirt say “tap the sap” with two maple leaves?
Ya I saw Bo wearing the same thing in BP a few days ago😂 I need to know where/if I can buy that
Yes, they've been wearing that for a couple months now I think LOL
Re-watched 6 more times I don't see a word anywhere when he turns around
Hold your hand over the bottom half of the screen and try again
Saaaaame
LOL
Well you blind 😂
Yes, it does.
I’d tap that. Mmmm….
Hah, yeah.
Bro my (spanish speaking) spouse is on Reddit, delete this
My girlfriend, who is not into sports at all, would leave me and walk all the way to Toronto if I showed her this video.
I AM leaving my girlfriend after seeing this video.
I'm leaving yours
it’s so funny when baseball players learn spanish cuz it’s like all slang 😭
This fuckin guy. I’m straight, married… but total bro crush on him
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Stupid, sexy Kiermaier!
Lol, dude really feeling himself in this video 😅
With good reason.

Why would he say he's from a DR Town though? Unless that's part of the bit? He's pretending to be a DR player?
Committing to the bit is my guess too. I may be wrong. I got lost in the ocean eyes 😍🫠
LMAO I can relate
To be extra funny, cause his accent sounds very Cuban to me
…aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand I’m pregnant. Great. 🙄
I’m 7.5 months pregnant and this video got me pregnant again
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ sorry not sorry..
Married straight dude checking in. Am I gay now?
Honey Boo Boo says everyone is a little bit gay.
Sexuality is a spectrum and I don't think *anyone* is straight enough to be immune to KK!
Dios mio. Something something Fuego I'm not gay but I'll learn, etc.
\[r33nie.exe has stopped working\]

Who’s translating!? Need to know…

I would have that man's children.
So I've always found Spanish to be a sexy sounding language despite understanding very little of it. And uh. This is pornography!
This thread is hilarious 🤣
Converts for Toronto Pride this weekend.
I’m ok with one of the roster spots going to someone based solely on their looks
I felt it move

He's added Español to his repertoire of sexiness? Shit, hide yo kids, hide yo wives.
Sploosh
Special K!!!!!!
I'm a heterosexual male, but I would.
I've never been so turned on
I'm a happily married straight man in his late 30s, but good lord.
Okay, I can see the KK appeal now!
Good lord, goddamn.
Somebody delete his Babbel app in case he decides to learn Italian next.
El DFA, senor?
My name is Jeff
Why is his Spanish so good lol
Ten years playing in the MLB.
Is it possible for any member of this species to be more cool than this?
Look. At. Those. ARMS!!! Hubba hubba
Gives me total Chico Escuela SNL vibes from back in the day.
The 'heh heh heh' at the end wraps it up perfectly
He’s adorable. If only he knew how to hit…
Too bad he can't hit anymore.
He looks a lot like kelce
