MikeO said:This is why before MLB can worry about a salary cap, they need to insert a "salary basement" where owners MUST spend a certain amount on actual players. To prevent teams like the Marlins from doing what they do. And to prevent owners in KC and Cincy from taking money from profit sharing and spending it on expanding the size of the cup holders in the stadium rather on actual on field talent.
For the sake of argument, why bother putting a basement in place? The owner owns the team and the stadium, he might as well spend his money on how he sees fit. If fans don't like the way the operation is being run then they should stop going to games, forcing the owner to lose money, forcing the owner to do what the fans want: put a winning team on the field.
