Manfred last year said he didn’t think Trump’s election would impact MLB’s international plans, according to USA Today. He said he hadn’t heard “anything with respect to the Cuba issue that would suggest that there’s going to be any change.”
“I think we’re all familiar with things he said about Mexico,” he added, speaking at the annual general managers meeting after the election in November.
“I think we need to wait and see what actually happens.”
Levine has been a longtime supporter of the president-elect.
