On Thursday, Iranian wrestling star Saleh Mohammadi made news worldwide, not the way he wanted. The government of Iran executed the 19-year-old in a public hanging; he was one of the three in the most recent public executions because they were in the January anti-Iran government protests.
This, according to American human rights activists and dissidents, aside from the Wrestler, also Mehdi Ghasemi and Saeed Davoudi were executed by hanging. Many world news agencies, including Associated Press, reported on this Iranian execution today.
This month up to seven members of the Iranian women’s soccer team sought asylum in Australia during the AFC Women’s Asian Cup, fearing persecution after refusing to sing the national anthem. Labeled “traitors” by state media, the players were assisted by Australian federal police to defect, though some later returned home, some admitted they were worried about his family left in Iran.
According to Amnesty International, Iran is one of the world’s biggest violators of Human Rights, along with other countries in this category: North Korea, Afghanistan, Syria, and Yemen. Note: Human Rights Watch notes that nations with poor records often use major events to hide abuses.
The Human Rights Foundation highlights that international bodies often overlook these abuses to maintain good relations with such regimes. Media in Iran is heavily censored and controlled by the state, with over 80% of citizens relying on government-run outlets.
Permitted media consists of pro-regime television, radio, and newspapers. While satellite dishes, popular social media (Instagram, WhatsApp), and many foreign websites are banned under Iran’s Theocratic regime.

From My Notebook 1981 Players Strike
That’s Amaury News and Commentary
By Amaury Pi-González
A lockout following the 2026 MLB season is considered “almost guaranteed” 90% chance by union officials,
The current Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) expires Dec. 1, 2026, with major disputes expected over a potential salary cap, team revenue sharing, and escalating contract numbers.
History of Work stoppages: (Nine (9) Four lockouts and Five strikes. Mostly focused on free agency, salary arbitration, pension funds, and revenue sharing.
There have been nine major work stoppages in Major League Baseball (MLB) history between owners and the players’ union, consisting of four lockouts and five strikes. These labor disputes have primarily focused on free agency, salary arbitration, revenue sharing, and pension funds, with the 1994-95 strike and 2021-22 lockout being among the most severe.
However, the one I mostly remember was the very interesting 1981 season work stoppage. A 50-day strike from June 12 to July 31, 1981. It was the second strike in MLB history, and 712 games were cancelled, which is more than one-third of the season. Billy Martin was the A’s manager, and it was known as “Billy Ball”
The A’s won the American League West first-half title as they swept the Kansas City Royals 3-0 in the Division Series and later were swept by the New York Yankees 3-0. The A’s played both teams on the road at KC and at NY. Julio González was my broadcast and traveling partner during this very unusual season.
Rickey Henderson was having a very good year. He told me he was not happy with the labor dispute, but he was having a good season, and the labor dispute did not distract him from his play on the field. Was he right?
Well, in 1981, Rickey Henderson became a big star, which eventually led to his induction into the Hall of Fame years later. Rickey finished second in AL MVP voting, led the AL in hits with 135, runs with 89, and steals with 56, while hitting .319, fourth best in the American League.
Rickey Henderson was Billy Martin’s favorite player; Rickey exemplifies the type of hustle that Billy always admired. As a player, Billy Martin was a hard-nosed, scrappy type of player; he loved players who hustled on the field, and Ricky Henderson was that type of player.
Note: Oakland A’s Andy Dolich’s creative marketing campaigns, which included the now-famous ‘BillyBall’ radio and television ads. Andy was the best executive the A’s ever had inside their marketing department. Oakland A’s fans can’t forget the song “Billy-Ball, the lyrics were a parody song in the tune of Charlie Brown by The Coasters. His work on the Oakland A’s “BillyBall” was a big hit.
Andy Dolich won a Clio Award for his work on the Oakland A’s “BillyBall” campaign during his time as a marketing executive with the team in the 1980s.

Climate Pledge Arena would be the site to host an expansion team in Seattle (Living Future image)
NBA Looking for Expansion to Las Vegas and Seattle
That’s Amaury News and Commentary
by Amaury Pi-Gonzalez
Las Vegas never had an NBA team. The Seattle SuperSonics played at KeyArena in Seattle from 1967 to 2008. They left Seattle because of a lease dispute with Key Arena, and since then, there has been no NBA action in the Emerald City. I traveled there with the Warriors, and I remember they had very good fans and a Hall of Fame coach, Lenny Wilkins.
Las Vegas once had the WNBA’s Las Vegas Aces, which relocated to San Antonio in 2008. However, they never had a permanent NBA team. The city hosts the annual NBA Summer League and is a leading contender for a future expansion team.
As of 2025-2026, the average NBA franchise is valued at over $4.6 billion, while some teams, such as the Warriors, Knicks, and Lakers, are valued between $7 billion and $11 billion. In the case of Las Vegas, if they succeed, they will now have all the top 4 professional leagues joining the MLB (A’s), NFL (Raiders), and NHL (Golden Knights), “one-stop shopping for major league sports”.
While Seattle (if they succeed) will have a return to the NBA for the first time since 2018. Attention Fans. This is not personal, it is business. “Everything in America is a business, and sports franchises fall into that category, and it seems like profit is more important than team history” (A’s are the best example).

2026 Season Predictions
That’s Amaury News and Commentary
By Amaury Pi-González
The 2026 MLB regular season begins with a special Opening Night game on Wednesday, March 25, at Oracle Park in San Francisco, followed by a full 14-game traditional Opening Day on March 26. This is the second time these two teams opened an MLB season; the last time was in 2023.
Last season, the Yankees finished in a virtual tie for first place in the AL East with the Toronto Blue Jays, both with an identical record of 94-68. The San Francisco Giants finished in third place in the NL West with an 81-81 record,12 games behind the Los Angeles Dodgers, who went on to win their second consecutive World Series. Both teams are expected to be contenders. The Yankees and Toronto still will fight for the AL East. Giants will have to fight with the Padres, both pursuing the Dodgers.
PREDICTIONS
AMERICAN LEAGUE (East) 1-Yankees 2-Blue Jays 3-Red Sox 4-Orioles 5-Rays.
The Yankees are still looking to win their 28th World Series (last one was 2009) I like their exciting offense, headed by Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, and a lineup that led the majors with 274 Home runs. They signed Cory Bellinger and veteran Paul Goldschmidt. Good rotation with Gerrit Cole, Carlos Rodón, and Max Fried; they added lefty Ryan Weathers on a trade with the Marlins. Their bullpen was a problem, with a 4.47 ERA. They added closer David Bednar from the Pirates. The Yanks will have to hit and hit and hit, because their overall pitching is a big question mark. Defense is average.
(Central) 1-Tigers 2-Guardians 3-Royals 4-Twins 5-White Sox. Tigers’ reigning Cy Young Award winner last year, Hayward’s own Tarik Skubal, is now joined by recently signed Free Agent Framber Valdéz (3-year $115 million). Those are two of the best pitchers in the game. Detroit also signed future Hall of Fame pitcher Justin Verlander to a 1 year deal. They have enough offense and a smart defense; they’re the best team in the Central. The last time Detroit won the division was in 2014. They are going to win it this season.
(West) 1-Mariners 2-Rangers -3-Houston 4-Athletics 5-Angels, -Mariners are “Always the Bridesmaid, but never the Bride”
As of the end of the 2025 MLB season, the Mariners are the only active MLB franchise that has never appeared in a World Series. Led by catcher Cal Raleigh, who tied Mickey Mantle for the most home runs by a switch-hitter in a single season with 54 home runs, Julio Rodriguez is ready to win an MVP, and, as always, good pitching to contend: Logan Gilbert, Bryan Woo, Luis Castillo, and George Kirby. A solid defensive team. They should win this division again. A good guy and play-by-play man, Rick Rizzs, announced after 41 years that 2026 will be his last. While the team renting in Sacramento showcases a powerful offense. Watch for a 19-year-old Dominican kid, Leo De Vries, who is a shortstop and can hit for power. Too bad the A’s do not have enough pitching to seriously contend, but they will continue to bang, and their defense has improved. Do not trust the LA Angels’ pitching.
NATIONAL LEAGUE (East) 1-Phillies 2-Mets 3-Braves 4-Nationals 5-Marlins. The Phillies should win that division again, one of the roughest teams at home; they won 55 of the 81 games in their casa. Phillies fans are among the most passionate in all of baseball; they are indeed the 10th man on that team. Super lineup, Schwarz, Turner, Harper, J.T.Realmuto, and company, and a stellar pitching staff, led by ace Zack Wheeler, followed by Jesús Luzardo, Cristopher Sánchez, three solid arms, and a solid defense, this is the team to beat again in this division.
(Central) 1-Cubs 2-Brewers 3-Reds 4-Pirates 5-Cardinals. The Cubs were busy this off season, restructuring their pitching and also adding veteran players Michael Conforto and Dylan Carlson. The most interesting team here is the Pittsburgh Pirates; they could give Milwaukee and Chicago fits. I think it is time for a change here, and the Chicago Cubs will provide.
(West)1-Dodgers 2-Padres 3-Giants 4-Diamondbacks -5 Rockies. -No reason to believe the Dodgers could not win this division again. The Padres and the Giants will battle for second (wild card). San Diego signed Miguel Tejada, Nick Castellanos, and Korean infielder Sung-Mun-Song. They have a solid offense with Machado, Tatis, Boagerts, and others. The Giants’ biggest off-season news is naming Tony Vitello from Tennessee as new manager. Became the first team ever to hire a college manager with no Major League experience. Giants added two good veterans: three-time batting champ Luis Arráez and talented center fielder Harrison Bader, along with pitchers Tyler Mahle and Adrian Houser. The top two pitchers, Brandon Webb and Robbie Ray, are Cy Young material,, they need Landen Roupp (7-7 3.80) to have his best season yet.

Five of the Iranian female soccer players who defected to Australia from Iran meets with the Australia for Home Affairs with Minister Tony Burke (center) the location where this photo was taken is undisclosed to protect the women’s whereabouts on Tue Mar 10, 2026 (AP News photo)
The Iranian women’s national soccer team was granted asylum in Australia
That’s Amaury News and Commentary

Five Iranian women members of the national soccer team were labeled “wartime traitors” by Iranian state media after they refused to sing the Islamic Republic’s national anthem during the 2026 AFC Women’s Asian Cup in Australia. Here in the United States, some athletes in the past have become “heroes” for similar reasons.
In 2016, then-San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick knelt on one knee during the US national anthem to protest racial injustice, which at the end cost him his career as a professional football player. The United States of America and Iran are diametrically opposed political systems.
The U.S. is considered the oldest functioning, continuous constitutional democracy in the world, while Iran is a theocratic state characterized by authoritarian rule, with governance based on Shia Islam and the supreme authority held by an unelected Supreme Leader, with a history of brutal repression against its own people, particularly in response to protests, and as a major state sponsor of terrorism.
A few years ago, a woman was executed because she refused to wear the Islamic headgear called a Hijab. A United Nations diplomat from Israel recently said, “Women in Iran are treated like dogs”. Australia’s home affairs minister, Tony Burke, said that five of the 26-member squad had told the Australian authorities they wanted to remain in Australia and that the same offer had been extended to the rest of the team.
Iran might not be in the World Cup. The Iranian men’s national team’s participation in the 2026 World Cup in the U.S. is officially scheduled but in severe doubt due to rising geopolitical tensions and military conflict. While Iran is qualified and slated to play group matches in Los Angeles and Seattle, potential boycotts or travel restrictions are being considered.
Even if they come, they are not scheduled to play any matches in the Bay Area. Condoleezza Rice, Stanford Professor of Political Science, when asked about Iran today, said, “To say Iran is not a threat is ‘ahistorical ” Did You Know? El Salvador and Honduras fought a 100-hour war, the “Football War” (or Soccer War) in 1969 over deep-seated issues, including land disputes. economic inequality and mass migration. The war lasted from July 14–18, 1969, following intense tension surrounding the 1970 World Cup qualifying matches.

From My Notebook: Cuba Baseball has been a constant for over 100 Years
That’s Amaury News and Commentary
By Amaury Pi-González
Since the largest island in the Caribbean became a free nation on May 20, 1902, winning independence from Spain, through governments of Presidential Democracy, the Batista dictatorship from 1952 to 1959, and the current Communist State from 1959 to the present.
Baseball has been a constant, no matter what type of government is ruling the island. The Brooklyn Dodgers held Spring Training in Havana, Cuba, multiple times, most notably in 1941, 1942, and in 1947, which was Segregation Avoidance. To escape segregation in the US, the Dodgers trained in Havana.
White players stayed at the Hotel Nacional, while Jackie Roinbosn and other Black teammates like Camapanella and Newxome were housed in a lower-budget hotel outside the city of Havana. The team famously flew to Havana in a team-owned Convair 440 Metropolitan.
No matter what politics were going on here in the United States from before 1947, when a Dodgers’ young star by the name of Jackie Robinson and after, Cuba always welcomed all baseball players, black or white. Therefore,
In Latin America, Cuba is considered a pioneer in baseball. World economists are predicting the collapse of the Cuban economy. Prior to 1959, Cuba provided roughly one-third of total U.S. sugar imports, but under the current system of government, blackouts are common all over the island, shortages of medicine, food, and other essential services, people’s discontent with government repression, and the near-death of their tourism industry.
Prior to 1959, Cuba provided roughly one-third of total U.S. sugar imports. The US blockade of Cuba is also impactful, however. As of early 2026, Cuba’s primary trading partners, with whom it conducts significant import and export activities, include China, Spain, Canada, and various European Union nations .
Key imports consist of food, fuel, and machinery, while exports focus on tobacco, nickel, and medical products. Doesn’t matter what the political situation is; for over a century, Cuba’s baseball has continued year-round, especially until 1960, when Cuba. The Professional Winter League was widely famous, attracting many Major League players, Cubans like Orestes (Minnie)Miñoso, to Camilo Pascua to Luis Tiant to Pedro Ramos and Bill Werele, and many big American stars (which I seen play in that league when I was a teen, guys like Brooks Robinson,
Hoyt Wilherm, Bob Skinner, Jackie Brandt and many others at the old Estadio eel Cerro in La Habana. The biggest difference being that until 1959 Cuban-born players where free to travel to the US, but or decacnes things have changed and many of the Cuban stars today in MLB either defected when they were playing with thei National team outside Cuba, or many risk their lives to escape in homemade boats and arrifve in the US, one that comes to mind was Yoanis Céspedes, whom I used to interpret when I was broadcasting Oakland A’s games.
No matter what happens in Cuba, I believe another change is coming soon. Baseball will always live in Cuba. one popular Cuban sayings and their meanings! 1. “Más sabe el diablo por viejo que por diablo.” Translation: The devil knows more because he’s old than because he’s the devil. Meaning: Experience is more valuable than knowledge or cunning.

Mediocerity is the word for the Warriors
By Amaury Pi-González
The Warriors walked into March with a 31-29 record, occupying the eighth and final playoff spot in the West. Their next five games are against the Clippers, Rockets, Thunder, Jazz, and Bulls. How this team is going to finish is anybody’s guess.
They just lost a game at Chase Center against the 41-year-old LeBron James, Lakers 129-101. Jimmy Butler is out for the season with a torn ACL. It typically takes 6-12 months for a full return, with 9 to 12 months for professional athletes to regain their full strength.
Stephen Curry also injured is missing games of late. His Right knee has patellofemoral pain syndrome (Runner’s Knee). When asked about the injury, he said one word,” weird.” Other Warriors medical situation, Seth Curry (sciatica) and the Jonathan Porzings saga is a totally disaster.
With just 22 games left, it doesn’t look like the Warriors are going to improve all of a sudden, even the postseason is at best a 50-50 proposition. They are currently sitting in the Western Conference’s eighth spot, aiming to avoid the play-in tournament and secure a top-six seed.
Just like the Giants, who play a few blocks away from Chase Center, the Warriors had a great run of championships winning in in 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2022. Every team suffers injuries; the Warriors are not alone; however, this season has always looked, to use Steph Curry’s previous word, “weird”.
