According to Associated Press, The Mexican baseball league wants to include two U.S. players who has Mexican descent on its World Baseball Classic roster next spring.
Because their parents are Mexican citizens, free Agent Shortstop Nomar Garciaparra and left-hand pitcher Horacio Ramirez of Atlanta Braves can play for Mexico, president of the Mexican baseball league Alejandro Hute said.
Hute said the players’ participation has not been formalized, but that both players had been contacted and said “they would think about it.”
Sixty-man rosters must be submitted by Jan. 17 and final 30-man rosters should be submitted on 24 hours prior to the start of the tournament.
