Yesterday, it came up that Major League Baseball had reached an agreement to establish a posting system for Cuban players in an effort to remove the very real problem of human trafficking from the player development pipeline.

Jeff Passan clarified matters a bit later in the evening:

Despite reports out of Cuba that there is an agreement to allow Cuban players to come to MLB via a posting system similar to the league's agreement with Japan, no deal is finalized, sources tell Yahoo Sports. The sides do expect to complete a deal in the near future, per sources.
