YASNY Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 QUOTE (Cubano @ Dec 21, 2008 -> 10:23 AM) It is frustrating for me to watch how the Cuban government exclude Cuban exiles from participating with their country. It is frustrating for me to watch how MLB is in bed with the Cuban government to exclude Cuban players playing for other nations when the eligibility criteria is so flexible and ridiculous. MLB has always been full of ... I seriously doubt MLB had any option other than excluding Cuba completely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justBLAZE Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I'm sorry but I think representing your country should be a little more 'selective' than simply choosing what team you play for. I can see if a player is a citizen of two countries, he picks one and plays for that team forever. Just my two cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it is if someone in your family as recent as your grandparents was a citizen of a ciuntry you can play for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
