Trump Administration Overrides MLB Deal On Cuban Player Transfers

The Trump Administration has rejected an agreement between Major League Baseball and the Cuban Baseball Federation regarding the movement of Cuban ballplayers, as Vivian Salama and Jared Diamond of the Wall Street Journal report. For the time being, the preexisting state of affairs will continue to govern any Cuban players that seek to join MLB organizations.

This is what I expected to happen. I am not sure why MLB thought there were going to get away with paying money to the Cuban government via Cuban baseball teams.

I do support the basic premise of this deal, eliminating the human trafficking of Cuban baseball players.

More white nationalist policies and other misguided distractions from their pathetic ongoing shit show continue to pour out of this fraudulent administration on a near daily basis.

Shameful.
