The Embargo’s Restrictions on the Freedom of Cuban Baseball Players III. AMATEUR DRAFT v. FREE AGENCY A. MLB Eligibility Rules B. Free Agency IV. IMPLICATIONS OF DEFECTION A. Dangers of Defection by Sea B. Humanitarian Violations V. FUTURE IMPLICATIONS OF BASEBALL ON UNITED STATES-CUBA RELATIONS A. Strides Toward Improvement B. Possible Solutions 1. Baseball Diplomacy Act 2. Worldwide Draft C. Cuban Participation in Major League Baseball Benefits Both the United States and Cuba VI. CONCLUSION 2 ABSTRACT Since the United States began its embargo of Cuba, Cuban-born men have defected from their homeland to pursue their dreams of freedom and playing Major League Baseball. Attempts at defection from Cuba pose significant risks to these players, ranging from death during the treacherous 90-mile journey from Cuba to the Florida coast, to their capture in route and repatriation back to Cuba to face harsh punishment from the Cuban Communist government. This paper examines the history of Major League Baseball’s impact on the United States-Cuba relations pre-embargo compared to the restrictions the embargo placed on Cuba after enactment and the effect the embargo had on Cuban men competing in the Major Leagues. It will examine how the Major League draft differs from the free agency system and the incentive free agency provides to Cuban men to defect.

America's Past-time and the Art of Diplomacy ALYSON ST. PIERRE* ABSTRACT As organizations and corporations construct an international reach, they become influential actors in foreign relations between sovereign countries. Particularly,while Major League Baseball continues to recruit players and build a large fan base across the globe, it increases its ability to facilitate civil relations between the United States and other nations. An exploration of how professional baseballprovides a useful platform to improve diplomatic relations between the United States and Cuba best exemplifies how the League can promote change. Although the United States and Cuba have had a rather tumultuous relationship in recent history, a coordinatedeffort to improve the treatment of Cuban baseball players through changes in League rules and federal laws has the ability to spark a unified commitment to improved diplomacy.
