Do they visit the White House? I am a Trump supporter up front and I dont think they do...going to be interesting I think. What say you baseball fans?
 
Well, at least one says he won't. I imagine there will be a mix.
 
Did I not see several players waving other flags besides the US flag?

Probably. Soto and Robles are from the Dominican Republic, and a couple more are. Sanchez from Venezuela. There are a few Mexican-Americans and a Brazilian.
 
Regardless of the President please respect the Office and go. It’s an honor most Americans never get. Hometown team on top of it

Not a fan of Trump, but that is the way I see it as well, I would definitely go and represent my team and city.
 
Go because you never know if the opportunity presents itself again. Especially for the marginal players who may not have long careers.

Also baseball is a business, not every player is guaranteed to get a Max Scherzer type contract that guarantees your roster spot in Washington where you can go visit the White House whenever you please.

Even more, getting back to the World Series and winning is harder. It's an event celebrating your great achievement. Only political stances being made are by the people who take issue with the invite. Presidents of both sides have been doing this for years. I wouldn't pass up a chance to meet any of our living Presidents if given the opportunity.
