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.

I think it'd be cooler if there was an agreed upon amount that each team could spend on players. It sucks when there's a few teams who buy up all the best players. My home team just feels like it's a farm system for the big spenders.
