This is the twenty-second year of the Annual in the book format. This year we’re looking at realignment, and all the conse- quences; more than half of the teams in our league have changed addresses. There are new rivalries and new configurations, and thus new story lines for our magazine. Our most senior manager brings us a great historical overview of our previous divi- sions and pennant races – how we came to our present arrangement. For our veteran managers, it’s a walk down memory lane; for our newer friends, it’s evidence of the depth and strength of our league. A brief apology: time and gaps in knowledge have forced us to skip over the playoff descriptions this year. There were two epic series that went seven games, both men- tioned in Year in Review articles: Melrose came within one key pitch of going to the World Series instead of Munich; and Maracaibo took Las Vegas in seven games before bowing to the Marauders.

Docket No. 1:16-cr-20091-KMW-2 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, versus JULIO ESTRADA, BARTOLO HERNANDEZ, Defendants-Appellants. ________________________ Appeals from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida ________________________ (August 13, 2020) Before ROSENBAUM, JILL PRYOR and BRANCH, Circuit Judges. JILL PRYOR, Circuit Judge: Case: 17-15405 Date Filed: 08/13/2020 Page: 2 of 57 Julio Estrada, a baseball trainer, and Bartolo Hernandez, a baseball manager, partnered with business professionals, human traffickers, and members of a Mexican criminal organization to smuggle baseball players out of Cuba and into the United States so that the players could enter into lucrative “free agent” contracts with Major League Baseball (“MLB”) teams.1 At the time of the events underlying this appeal, MLB rules required Cuban citizens to obtain “unblocking” licenses from the United States Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) before they could enter into free agent contracts. To obtain unblocking licenses, the players were required to prove that they had moved to a third country with no intention of returning to Cuba. The defendants’ operation would smuggle players into Mexico, Haiti, or the Dominican Republic, where Estrada, Hernandez, and other co-conspirators would procure fraudulent documents to establish the players’ residencies in those countries. The players used the false residency documents to obtain unblocking licenses permitting them to contract with MLB teams.
