Solution Preview
Despite barring players from speaking Spanish to each other in the clubhouse, MLB managers have now recognized the importance of learning Spanish as a second language. With over 30% of the MLB players being Spanish, managers face an increased need to learn the language other than English. The adoption of Spanish by the MLB managers is an integration strategy that is enhanced to foster mutual cohesion and effective communication. Considerably, the English speaking players are not taking Spanish classes so that they can speak to their Spanish playmates.
