Phillies reliever Jose Alvarado found out this weekend that he won’t be able to participate for Team Venezuela in next month’s World Baseball Classic. His insurance was denied.
Alvarado was not the only player affected by the late news — Jose Altuve and Carlos Correa will not participate for Team Venezuela for the same reason. Nor will Mike Trout play for Team USA.
