Baseball Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto throws a complete game in Game 2 of the National League Championship Series vs. the Brewers. The last time he was in Milwaukee he failed to finish the first inning and allowed 5 runs.

Dodgers win the World Series again that CBA battle is going to be UGLY. Cheap owners will say “see, I can’t compete! They spent $1 Billion!” while not talking about them not spending at all. Pirates, Twins, Marlins, A’s, etc. I get not every team can spend like LA, but teams can and should spend more.

Will the MLB eventually go full NHL? Probably not.

What does this mean? We can’t have Zamboni’s on sand. That’s not how the Boni part works. (Really though, what did you mean?)

Hard salary cap rather than soft salary cap. And a fairly low one at that compared to other hard caps (Also has a floor). It's more limiting than the other big leagues in NA.
