As of 2021, Major League Baseball does not have an official captain designation. Unlike other sports leagues, such as the NHL and NBA, MLB does not have a tradition of naming captains for their teams. While some teams have had players in the past who have been viewed as leaders and role models, they were not officially designated as captains.
Some players who are considered leaders on their teams include Yadier Molina of the St. Louis Cardinals, Freddie Freeman of the Atlanta Braves, and Francisco Lindor of the New York Mets. However, none of these players have been formally given the title of "captain" by their respective teams or the league.
Additionally, MLB's Collective Bargaining Agreement prohibits teams from naming a captain during contract negotiations, as it is considered a potential bargaining chip. Therefore, it is unlikely that we will see the introduction of a captain designation in MLB in the near future.
