How is this a good thing?

Especially at a time when one major player pipeline is falling apart due to political unrest (Venezuela).



Whatever happened to the yearly whine about this time of year about "there are not enough African Americans in baseball"?

which was ludicrous because they are right around their % of the US population, which isn't even the right denominator anyway because half the league is from Latin America.

I always chuckled that for the purposes of their whining Edgar Renteria did not count as a black guy.

Well, Renteria is Colombian, which isn't african american.
