I used to want a salary cap for baseball seeing what happens with the Pirates but now, gently caress it. Even if the owners could unilaterally impose one, no dollar amount they set it at would be low enough to make a difference to Bob Nutting. And it wouldn't make tickets any cheaper. They are doomed until the team is sold to someone else or baseball adopts full communism where all teams have equal access to the same pool of money to sign contracts with.

Intruder posted:A salary cap in baseball would be murder for veterans unless you completely change the way you handle pre-arb and arb years yeah it's really hosed how the only way to make money in baseball is to be really good for a long time and hope you get horribly overpaid in your twilight years. I wonder how long until the owners start trying to get non-guaranteed contracts like football so they could just straight-up release your Albert Pujols-types

"Financial Fair Play" is like how Republicans call the "you can dump poo poo into the water now" bill the "Clean Stream for America Act"

The Cowboys keep all their merch money because they opted out of the sharing agreement. Same thing as how Jordan and Bonds opted out of their PA's marketing agreements.
