Only partially true.
Aren’t the Dodgers the only team allowed to keep all of their tv money? Y’all can stop pretending that every team can spend like the Dodgers. But congrats, I guess. Buying championships will lead to a stoppage, likely a long one.

The Dodgers get $334 million yearly through their t.v. Contract, before any other revenue comes in. They give zero fricks if it's an overpay. And it is.

Baseball is my favorite sport but it’s headed for a lockout very, very soon.

It's a joke sport that has been ruined as usual by a major market team and the other teams just taking it.
I used to like pro baseball back in the day too, but now I actually dislike it.

Baseball is broken. One team just buying its way to titles. It should have learned from the NFL model of having a salary cap.

Yall deserve every bit of this - 90% of MSB was rooting for Toronto in the WS. Disgusting.

Baseball is the worst of the Big 4.
Even behind the NBA.

Also, Manfred blocked other teams from running the same deferred compensation scam.

Who is "ya'll"? I haven't watched an inning of major league baseball in years.

None of this is new. In the 17 seasons from 1947 to 1963 a New York team won the Series 15 times … including 10 in a row from 1947 to 1956 … and after the Dodgers moved to LA they won two during that span. And half the teams and their fan bases understood and accepted that they only existed as cannon fodder and had no chance whatsoever at the big trophy, they just played the season and did what they could do and entertained who showed up and went home when it was over.
Here’s the difference now: Back then there were eight or 10 teams in each league, 16 or 20 in MLB. Now are there 30 and they are talking seriously about adding more. You cannot have a sport with one behemoth with a bottomless checkbook and that many teams out in flyover country destined to be cannon fodder.

That’s what I don’t get about MLB. A good model of how to run a league exists. It might not happen overnight, by why not use that model?

Not starting a new thread so can just pile info in here since the big names are moving. Mets obviously pissed off and just money whipped the Phillies
They have a logjam in the infield now seemingly. Lindor, Siemien, Vientos, Bichette, Polonco. Guess they can move Vientos for an arm and still sign Bellinger
Shoot forgot about Baty too, and Acuna was a highly thought of prospect

Because of the atrocious way players were treated back in the days of the reserve clause, even though that ended 50 years ago, baseball has always had the most militant union unwilling to compromise on anything or give the owners anything that could be construed as a victory.
