Like previous White House events with sports teams during Mr. Trump’s presidency, the traditional ceremony is expected to be clouded by the absence of some team players who have said they plan to decline the president’s invitation over their disagreements with the president’s politics.

Pitcher Sean Doolittle told The Washington Post he would not attend Monday’s ceremony, saying he strongly disagreed with Mr. Trump’s “divisive rhetoric.” Doolittle and his wife have publicly expressed their support for refugees and the LGBTQ community, two groups many feel the current admnistration has marginalized through its policies and rhetoric.

When Mr. Trump attended Game 5 of the World Series in Washington, he was met with boos and chants of “lock him up.”
