[quote name='DJSteel']ing Pirates.. I hate baseball.. they could have gotten more... this is part of the reason they lose so ing much...
I want one of two things to happen to the Pirates:
1 - I want the owner to sell the team to someone who will spend to keep them competitive.
2 - I want MLB to step in an stop this BS.
a - create a salary cap (it will never happen)
b - I want them to force the owner to either spend or sell.
Seriously, there is more to baseball than NY, Boston, and Chicago.. but everyone is blind to that fact...if baseball was competitive with their salaries then you could have big stars in small markets like the NFL and NHL... I'm sick and tired of this bulshit.. I'm sell my MLB the show and I will no longer support or watch MLB..[/QUOTE]
The league doesn't have a cap, but small market teams are kept competitive by revenue sharing. If those teams choose to pocket that money as profit as the Marlins and Pirates do, instead of investing it into the team, thats not MLB's fault. The method by which they level the playing field is the very thing keeping those bad owners in place, its solely the owner's fault for not being interested in winning.
I'm sure Selig and 29 teams would love a cap, but the PA will never, ever allow it. Unlike the NFLPA, they're extremely powerful.
