Send him home, why are we importing people to play American baseball. Surely there are plenty of Americans for these few jobs—and talented ones.

That is a hateful thing to say. If he is here legally I have no problem with him being here.

Yeh talented American athletes like Colin Kapearnick. Maybe he’d like to try baseball. He’s available.

“... why are we importing people to play American baseball. “

Because he’s better at his position for the price than anyone else in the world, American, Cuban, Japanese, Mexican.....

Why did we let Teller, Fermi, Szilárd, Bohr, and those hundred of other foreign scientists work on the Manhattan Project? Why did Einstein have a job at Princeton? There were plenty of Americans who wanted those jobs.

Because we wanted the best.

My object is to welfare migration which pure national suicide.

Both of the Pirates’ catchers are from Venezuela.

Last season Francisco Cervelli made a TV spot about the troubles plaguing his country. He was literally about to cry as he was talking about them.

Diaz is a young kid just up from the minors. We all need to pray that his mom is retrieved safely.

It is like capitalism. The best guy gets the job. I prefer Americans too but baseball is big business and they hire those that pay the most dividends.

I don’t know why the Venezuelan players don’t move their families to Panama or somewhere safe.
