This means that they probably played the sport through college and maybe in the pros. Since the percentage of minorities who play baseball is less than the percentage that play football and basketball, it is only reasonable to think that the number of minorities in the front office would also be lower. History shows that there have been improvements in hiring minorities for front office positions in professional sports. As time goes on, and more minorities continue to play baseball, we will find the number of qualified minorities will increase and therefore the front office positions held by minorities will also increase. Baseball is doing just fine.
Statistics show that the numbers are improving every year.
They are simply hiring the most qualified people for the job. As a member of the National Chamber of Commerce, we feel there should be no boycotting of the Cincinnati Reds baseball team. We feel this way because it hurts business. Also there is less incoming money and there will be a decrease in jobs. Also if you boycott other minorities are going to find other reasons to boycott other businesses.
