So that means I have to hear about the tragedy that the MLB is only 6% American black. It's just the national percentage of the black American male population but blacks not being overly represented is a bad thing.

True about Walker. Baseball is my favorite sport and one of my dream jobs would be a baseball historian so I love that kind of info.
Yea maybe they are just sensationalist morons but I want to tell the people who write the articles that a black guy with talent for baseball will be signed. Like during a recent World Series one guy made a fuss about there being no black Americans on the roster. Not sure what he thinks the MLB can do. I remember trying to get my cousins interested and they told me it was too boring
No im saying that you’re being sensationalist
Fine. I have seen such articles or people talking about it like it’s a crisis but what do I know. I guess we have nothing left to discuss. Have a good day sir.
I mean I looked a few up, but none that I find really blame the MLB for it.
The sport is expensive, especially in US culture, so it becomes a bit more class related than race.
I think it’s important to look more deeply at the info then going with a knee jerk reaction
Then learn to google better, because my Google searched showed a whole bunch. So you are either a liar or incompetent.
I agree that it’s more of a class thing. I’m in a number of baseball forums so I see this topic come up more than the average person but you pretty much spelled it out. Not sure what would change it. When I was a kid I think it was like a quarter black. Also with baseball and basketball you can reach the pros much faster
