Neither the MLB nor the Cuban Federation had officially confirmed the suspension.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;The MLB has been notified of the dangers of trading with Cuba,&#8221; a senior government official, quoted in <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.elnuevoherald.com\/deportes\/beisbol\/article228984524.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">El Nuevo Herald<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, told NBC News.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By preventing payments, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/deportes\/beisbol\/cuba-y-mlb-alcanzan-historico-acuerdo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the agreement<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> would apparently be impossible to put into practice. As part of the agreement, the Cuban Federation had agreed to release all players who were 25 years old or over, who have at least six years of professional experience. In addition, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/deportes\/beisbol\/cuba-libera-a-34-peloteros-aficionados-para-jugar-en-estados-unidos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">it recently released<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> 34 young players, as amateurs, for possible hiring by Major League clubs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, since the announcement of the deal, several politicians opposed to the rapprochement with Havana, such as Republican Senator Marco Rubio, were against it and warned that they would take action to reverse it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even National Security Adviser John Bolton said Cuba intended to use its baseball players as economic pawns, selling their rights to MLB and was against the U.S. National Pastime serving for what it called &#8220;the Cuban regime\u2019s support to Maduro in Venezuela.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Havana\u2019s backing of Caracas is the White House\u2019s current argument to impose new measures against the island and it also seems to be a declared reason for this new Trump administration &#8220;crackdown,&#8221; a news that has found rapid echo in the U.S. media. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Washington Post said that these changes are part of a broader effort to put pressure on Cuba in relation to Venezuela.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The agreement between Cuba and MLB materialized after three years of negotiation, and ensures a collaborative, stable and non-politicized relationship between both parties. It seeks to stop the human trafficking that for several years has put at risk the lives of many Cuban baseball players, especially young talents, and it also applies to the island\u2019s players who emigrated and have been reinserted into Cuba\u2019s competitive system after their return.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In general, its clauses are similar to those established by the MLB with other foreign leagues such as the Japanese and the Korean. According to them, players could receive 100% of the bonus for signing, while MLB clubs would pay an additional 25% to the Cuban Federation as a release fee.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If finally rolled back, all of the above would be a dead letter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the first to react was James Williams, president of Engage Cuba, who said that the cancellation of the agreement &#8220;exposes Cuban players to human rights abuses&#8221; and said that it is &#8220;a cynical, cruel and gratuitous act&#8221; that is aimed at appeasing those &#8220;bent on continuing a failed 60-year policy of isolation. &#8221; <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;The Cuban players and their families had reason for hope from this deal; that has now been extinguished, &#8221; added James, for whom undoing this deal is not a victory for the United States or for the Cuban people, it\u2019s just a victory for the Florida hard-liners\u2019 special interests and for the human traffickers and extortionists. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AP\/OnCuba<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump has taken steps to end a deal that allows Cuban baseball players to sign contracts directly with Major League organizations and that was celebrated as historic by both parties.
