I fully expect to see an MLB team in Cuba in the next 10-15 years. |

MLB teams make the investment and own the team. When the time is right, they sell and collect the profit. |

Why not Miami plays like 10-15 games there? I can't see 40,000 Cubans dropping $100 each 81 games/year. |

I think any move south will require subsidization by the league. It seems like a wise investment to grow the Latin/Caribbean market in the hopes of an eventual push down to bigger jewels like Brazil. |

I'd be fine with the Marlins playing three in San Juan and three in Havana, despite the ignominy of Miami-Dade building them that stadium and then the Marlins playing elsewhere anyway. |
