This just isn't that great of a FA class. Next year is going to be huge though.

I can atleast sympathize with an NFL player wanting more money. Football is damn dangerous (Shazier, McMahon, Favre, etc). Cash in

But baseball? 162 games a year, concussions not a serious concern, injuries few and far between, etc.

I'd play it for $100,000 a year

I'm beginning to think being part of baseball ownership is an awful idea. Sure there is a ton of money there but if you try to make any type of smart business decisions and the rest of the league follows this is what you get.

"Collusion" "We'll strike" It's literally like showing up to work and demanding your boss pay you something over the top and if they refuse you saying "fine I'll get it either way" the baseball players have been running the asylum forever and it really needs to change.

I said it a long time ago and I'll say it again, baseball needs a hard salary cap even if that means telling players to **** themselves for a long time ala the NHL.

The irony is, the nba and nfl have salary caps and they have major parity issues. Baseball doesn't and their parity has been incredible. I know there's a lot more to that. But the salary cap is fine. I believe now and always will believe that the problem isn't money, it's the cheapskate owners who refuse to spend on their team

Royals bought for $95 million. Current value is $351 million

Cardinals bought for $144 million. Current value is $1.8 billion.

Maybe worth it?

From my perspective....them going on strike wouldn't ruin anything, as I don't seem to have the love for MLB I used to have.

I enjoyed the run the Royals had...but until MLB brings about something akin to the parity the NFL created my interest will continue to wane.

It does....just because some teams are smarter with their money than others doesn't mean there isn't parity.

In the past 5 years, only 5 teams have been in the Super Bowl. Because NE, Seattle, Denver have been there multiple times.

Meanwhile in MLB, in the past 5 World Series, 9 teams have made it (only repeat was the Royals). That includes the Indians, Royals, Cubs, Astros, and Mets - 5 teams who were notoriously terrible for many years prior.

The problem I have with the salary cap is that it rewards mediocrity. The higher the cap, the more a QB becomes a liability. Same shit is happening in basketball. The max deal thing is a total ****ing joke because it's led to teams stockpiling superstars.
