MLB Considers Posthumous Reinstatement for Pete Rose Amid Trump Support

News summary

The family of Pete Rose, baseball's all-time hit leader, is pushing for his posthumous reinstatement to Major League Baseball (MLB) after he was banned for gambling in 1989. A petition filed on January 8 by Rose's daughter, Fawn Rose, and his lawyer, Jeffrey Lenkov, is currently under review by Commissioner Rob Manfred, who has engaged in discussions regarding the matter. This renewed effort coincides with former President Donald Trump's declaration of his intent to pardon Rose, emphasizing his belief that Rose deserves a spot in the Hall of Fame despite past controversies. Rose's legacy remains contentious, as he admitted to gambling on games involving the Cincinnati Reds, a claim that led to his permanent ineligibility. The outcome of Manfred's review is uncertain, echoing a similar denial he made in 2015 when Rose sought reinstatement. The discussion has reignited interest in Rose's storied but controversial career in baseball.
