Welcome to MLBlogs! A salary cap - a loaded question. I think something needs to be done so that teams in smaller markets can compete, but I don't know if a salary cap is the answer. Stop by and visit.
It is outrageous that the New York Yankees can buy their way into the playoffs at the very least. Spending 413 million dollars to pay their players this year, the Yankees have spent at least 200 million dollars more than any other team in Major League Baseball. From basepad to basepad, everywhere in the outfield, up and down the pitching rotation, and down in the bullpen, the Yankees have coated the area with money. If Bud Selig, MLB's commisioner put in a salry cap the issue of richer, east coast team bias could fade away. Then, baseball could capitalize across the country even more. When, the Yankees, however, take star players away from teams in the free agent market, the small market teams lose games, fans, and revenues. The other 29 teams are far more important than just one.
