Nicaragua is Happy!

[Cubano100%]

Un ejecutivo de la oficina del Comisionado de las Grandes Ligas se comunicó con el presidente de la Liga Nicaragüense de Beisbol Profesional (LNBP), Enrique Gasteazoro, para informarle que Nicaragua es el primer candidato para sustituir a Cuba, en caso que este país no pueda asistir al súper torneo beisbolístico.

A MLB executive contacted Nicaraguan Baseball Officials to let them know that Nicaragua will be chosen if Cuba can not participate in the WBC.


Nicaragua está a la espera de un eventual llamado al Clásico Mundial. En una primera comunicación con la gente de la Major League Baseball (MLB), nos pidieron un uniforme de muestra de visitante y home club, y nos van a enviar un formulario como equipo tentativo a participar en el torneo.

MLB asked Nicaragua for its preferences for a home club and a visitors uniforms.

Can Contreras really pitch for Nicaragua? I thought, under international rules, he had to wait 5 years after his last appearance for Cuba (which was in Mexico in 2002).

Are not the rules more relaxed? I thought that MLB proposed the rules. The IBAF clowns just approve the tournament.

I hope Contreras does not play. He needs to make a run at the Cy Young and shut up some people. This is his free agent year too.
