Are Whites being pushed out of Baseball

[Booth]

I have posted before I believe that Whites are being replaced in baseball. I have been fortunate or unfortunate to witness this by attending minor league games since 2011 except for 2022 when I was sick. I attend at least one 1A, 2A, and 3A game a year. I also watch an Independent league game each year. I have seen the rosters go from 50% to 60% White to 10 to 20 % White. Common sense tells me that if the roster is 90% Hispanic in the minor leagues, eventually the Major League roster will be that. I think baseball will always have Whites, but will they have enough to keep people going to the games? This is just one person's opinion.

Roki Sasaki isn't the only important player in this class. These five prospects could also make a big impact on their future teams.

Meanwhile college baseball is among the Whitest sports. It is interesting how every sport seems to find a way to screw over White athletes. I don't have any issue with the Japanese players coming over as they are "outliers" and some of the best players in their country. The players from latin america are more akin to the White replacement as the league just outright ignores White talent while mining third world turd countries for mediocre players to riddle rosters.

This! Due to the way the international signings are set up, there is really no limit to how many 16 year olds from the DR or Venezuela these teams can sign. Most of the non-elite talent can be signed for cheap, so again it’s White replacement via lower wage workers.

MLB has two academies located in the Dominican Republic. Also one in Puerto Rico. Not sure if I found a complete list from a Google search (something that shouldn't be hard to find but maybe MLB deliberately downplays it). There are a number in the U.S., all located in major cities -- Compton (LA), Houston, New Orleans, Cincinnati, D. C., Philadelphia, West Dallas.

Where aren't any located? In rural and suburban America and the Appalachians. MLB discriminates against Whites via a longstanding institutional bias. There are other ways of course, all enabled or ignored by the always faithful and now discredited "legacy" media. If a sufficient number of American Blacks good enough to play can't be brought along then the rest of the world be scoured in order to replace Whitey as much as possible.

According to this article: "There are 58 academies in the Dominican Republic associated with MLB."

And: "Of the top 50 international players signed this year, 30 – or roughly 60% – were from the Dominican Republic."

Baseball has huge on- and off-the-field impact in the Dominican Republic - Cronkite News

Dominicans make up 11% of Major League Baseball rosters, many a product of this baseball-mad country's youth system, where children as young as 7 train in hopes of one day playing in the U.S. and lifting themselves and their families out of poverty.

Apropos of nothing, Diamond Baseball Holdings was founded in 2021 by Peter Freund as an investment vehicle for Endeavour Group, the private equity firm that owns UFC, WWE, and the IMG Academy. Endeavour Group is run by Ari Emmanuel, brother of versatile statesman Rahm Emmanuel and covid advisory board member Ezekiel Emmanuel, and son of Benjamin Emmanuel, one of Israel's own founding fathers. In less than four years, DBH has purchased more than 40 minor league baseball clubs, from Single-A to Triple-A. DBH was transferred a year later to Silver Lake, Endeavour's parent company, which is itself a more diversified private equity firm.

Silver Lake has a group of public-facing board members with innocuous last names, for what it's worth. They claim to have $88 billion dollars in assets that earn $254 billion in annual revenue. That's quite a rate of return!

Diamond Baseball Holdings seems to specialize in extracting tax preferences from their clubs' home cities, although this is absent from its mission statement.

I had no idea about any of this an hour ago. I went to look at the Brooklyn Cyclones (Single A) roster, which used to be packed with non-English speaking Venezuelans, who all lived together in one of the project complexes in Coney Island. I was surprised to learn that NY Mets owner Steve Cohen had sold off two of his feeder teams to DBH last month. Anyway, the current roster is majority-Dominican.

I don't have the will or energy to look through the baseball owners who sold their teams to Silicon Valley. They might not all be Emmanuels or Cohens, but I'm sure they're all Freunds.

The Dodgers have built a baseball academy in Uganda, where Idi Amin once said, " I love White people. I eat one for dinner everyday."
