I recall when PR was the "home" of the Montreal Expos for like 20 games in the season before they moved to Washington to become the Nationals.  Suppose PR becomes the 51st state, could we see a team in PR as their economcy becomes more in line with our economcy?

Just imagine the advantages that a PR based team could have...players born and raised in the Caribeann would be motivated to play for the "home" Caribeann team.

I'd love to see MLB teams go to more baggy uniforms to match what was used in the past.
