    I always considered Jofre non-latino. Not sure why, I just have it in my head that Brazil is somehow more "european" somehow as opposed to South America. No idea why, it makes zero sense........

    I've seen Saldivar, and haven't been madly impressed. Others here love him, but I'm just not on board.

    The only difference is that we speak portuguese instead of spanish.....and portuguese is a latin language also, like spanish is....Brazil is a country inside America Latina....so no difference with a place like Mexico for example instead of the language as far as latin american countries goes.....
