The word for a Latin baseball handler is buscone, not boscone.

Correct. Failed to catch that whilst editing.

actually, it is “buscon” in singular form. One adds the “es” ending to make the word plural. English speakers make this error because we most often pluralize by just adding an s. Where you may see this error most frequently is in “tamale/tamales” instead of “tamal/tamales”…and here when reading about buscones.
xtraflamy
the singular form is “buscon”.

Such an if ignorant statement. The same things happen with players from the Dominican. Why don’t we generalize and judge another nation. Because this never happens with American born players or those of any other country.

Mlb needs a less dangerous/sketchy means for players to come to the mlb. This isn’t an issue that started with lazarito. Yulnesky betacourt came from Cuba and had one of his legs broken by a handler. Puig was basically held hostage in a Mexican motel they he “wouldn’t bring a prostitute to” for months. And a few of the people who facilitated his comming to the dodgers no longer have the ability to breathe air. Many Cuban players continue to be extorted for years after they begin their careers.
We, as the public in general do not hear of these types of stories comming out of players comming from Japan, Korea, Mexico, Dominican Republic, or even Venezuela. ( not saying it doesn’t happen, but we don’t hear about it.). If we can get players from a country as troubled as Venezuela with out these types of problems, we should be able to do it with Cuba.
