I see the logic of including the numbers. But I have problems with including them as well.
1) The data integrity, which I have mentioned elsewhere, is a real concern.
2) Could this be a slippery slop? If we are including the N-League, why not include Japan or Korea or Indian or Mexican or Cuban or…. The N-Leagues (was there a single league, or just a collection of barnstorming teams that tended to play each each other?) were the apex that a certain group of players could achieve. But couldn’t the same be said about the other national leagues across the world? Why treat the N-Leagues special?
3) The “MLB” is a legal entity. And the N-Leagues were not associated with MLB at the time. Why rewrite history at this point? Are there any legal assets held together under some kind of N-League umbrella? Who owns that entity?
