Falling Number of Black Players in Major League Baseball

SOURCE www.breitbart.com
MSNBC published an editorial claiming the falling number of black players in Major League Baseball reflects a 'war on DEI.' However, the issue has been ongoing for decades and is primarily due to black kids being more interested in basketball and football. The number of Latinos in MLB has risen to 30.29 percent.

Key Points

  • The declining number of black players in MLB is a long-standing issue
  • The preference of black kids for basketball and football contributes to the decline
  • The rise in the number of Latinos in MLB
  • The issue is more complex than just a 'war on DEI'

Pros

  • Highlighting the issue of diversity in Major League Baseball
  • Raising awareness about the declining number of black players in MLB

Cons

  • Blaming the issue solely on a 'war on DEI' without considering other factors
  • Suggesting that MLB purposefully set out to reduce the number of black players
