The fact that there are only 67 black players in MLB is indeed tragic, but it’s not because of racism. Baseball is just not as popular with younger black kids as basketball and football are. It’s not seen as a possible career in the same way the other two sports are. Not anymore.
Believe me, if there were tons of young black players tearing up the minor leagues they’d be brought up the Show in a heartbeat. All anyone cares about is if you can play.
