Baseball is not only a national sport in the US, it's also the most popular sport in Cuba. In a historic move, the US professional baseball organization Major League Baseball and the Cuban Baseball Federation reached an agreement that will allow players from the island to sign contracts in the US, eliminating their need to defect. The agreement allows Cubans to sign under rules similar to those for players under contract to clubs in Japan, South Korea and Taiwan. The agreement has the potential to bring millions of dollars in income to the cash-poor Cuban federation, which has seen its quality of players and facilities decline in recent years as talent went overseas. However, the Trump administration has signaled it has problems with such a business relationship.
