The Greatest Cuban Baseball Player You've Never Heard Of

Carlos Tabares is a legend, even though he never came to the US. Instead, he turned down multimillion dollar offers to stay with his family in Cuba. Now, at 42 years old, he's still starring for Cuba's flagship club Industriales. But many fans wonder what might have been if he had made the arduous journey to the States. In the shadow of thawing relations between Cuba and the US, we spent time with Carlos and his club as he reflected on his journey and the decisions he's made.

Tabares is a legend for Cuban baseball. His plays and his aptitude made him earn the position he is at. Millions of times he made us drop our jaws with incredible plays only he can do. Unfortunately, Cuba is a dictatorship where everybody is the property of the government. He mentioned during the interview that MLB players are sort of a merchandise in the hands of team owners. I think that is a lack of knowledge from Tabares. When you become a member of the MLB you sign a contract for doing a job and you are expected to do that job. Ending that contract you are free to go and do wherever you want. Not the same in Cuba. You are part of a team as long as the government wants you to be, or as long as you agree with the government in terms of politics. Not even caring about your skills or aptitude. I'm not criticizing his position or his skills, there is no doubt he is a wonderful player and human been, I'm criticizing the way that government makes you think despite any logic behind the situation. There will be better baseball in Cuba the day Cubans are free.

Tabares never says anything about solving baseball or anything like that he only talks about not going to the US and loving the time he has spent playing. I had noticed that there were missing captions at some points but that was just a totally different sentence than the one spoken.

If any player flee they are not allowed by the Cuban government to go back to visit their family in cuba. The Cuban government hold their families in cuba as a way to punish them because they want to play at the MLB. Now the Cuban government is being more flexible with the baseball players by letting some of the them to play outside just if they agree to give the Cuban government most of the money they earn and if they like the revolutionary government. If you think different they do not let you play any where.....

You obviously didn't get what i am saying. First i do know what i am talking about brother, i am from Cuba, played Baseball in Cuba, Coached in Cuba and defected when coaching in Mexico in 2005. Read again, that's right, you can't play for Cuba anymore if you leave, at the beginning the sanctions were stricter but never life imprisonment but basically the same because you couldn't play anymore, couldn't get another job, they were watching you so you couldn't leave the island and things like that, they did that to El Duque Hernandez, now is little bit more flexible caused everyone is leaving so they have no choice, defectors now can go back and visit Cuba, Yasiel Puig, Rey Ordonez, Jose Contreras and others have done it and they were allowed, not because they Dictators are changing but the are feeling the pressure of the Cuban people and the world. Athletes around the world play at professional leagues in other Countries and they return to play with their Nation in International Competition, not Cubans, thanks to the stupid Government. Tabares like many others had offers but one thing is getting the offer and another one is getting sign with a Major League team, even if he happened to be signed, he wouldn't get a great offer and i don't thing he would last too long in the Majors, like i said he was a good player but not a top class like Omar Linares, Victor Mesa, Antonio Pacheco, Jerman Mesa, Orestes Kindelan, Luis Ulacia..etc, any Cuban can tell you that, except for a hard core Industriales Team (Havana City Team) super fan, lol.

He was a good center fielder, but not the best. By far he is not the best. Have you heard about Martin Dihigo, Alexei Ramirez, and many others. Tavares is not the best player.
