Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred is reportedly reviewing a petition to reinstate Pete Rose. Hopefully that review doesn't take very long and ends in a definitive "no," because the league absolutely does not need to reinstate Rose,

President Donald Trump announced Saturday that he plans to pardon the late baseball all-time hit king Pete Rose “in the coming weeks,” while Major League Baseball is considering a petition to posthumously remove the Cincinnati Reds icon from the sport’s ineligible list.

Trump called for Rose to be elected to the Hall of Fame and said MLB "didn’t have the courage or decency" to allow him in.
