Great post. This is one aspect of our country that deserves promotion. Venezuela has contribured with great athletes in all disciplines but baseball is no doubt the one where it has given its best. Ironically, baseball historians do not devote much attention to the venezuelan record players.
I remember watching Burns' 10 episode-documentary, probably the best ever made on the sport, and not hearing ine single venezuelan name being mentioned.
Sadly in the next years we'll see the number of venezuelan players in the big leagues diminish, because if all the issues you have mentioned.
I stopped watching our local championship some years ago when the stars stopped playing because of MLB restrictions.

I also stopped following Venezuelan baseball because of the number of daily problems that drown us. It's hard to watch local television, to entertain yourself, while the country falls apart. As I said, this government has made Venezuela a place where dreams die. Greetings and hugs.
