Another great MLB season, but just a few thoughts on foreign talent.
Do you think theres too many non US born players in the majors.
Maybe there should be a limit to the amount allowed to a roster.
I personally think the the product would suffer without foreign talent, imagine no Pujhols, Vlad, Ichiro, you could go on forever.
The problem i see is not enough home grown talent being given a chance at the majors.
this problem is also in the NBA, and NHL.
Owners these days will now look overseas, rather than there farm systems.
For every Ichiro, theres a Shinjo, Surely thers a better outfielder in tripple A better than Shinjo waiting for his chance but wont get it because its fashionable to look overseas.
Take the Marlins line up for the World Series i think only Juan Pierre and Jeff Connine were born in the USA.
I am not American but think its only natural to root for your fellow countryman.
I just think that this needs to be looked at, but not at the expense of the overall product.
One last thought who would win a best of 7 series between USA Allstars & World Allstars.
My opinion USA just.
