In 2021, there were 4 teams that didn't even spend $60m on their payroll. This year the Athletics are already looking to get down to a $55m payroll, reportedly, after $91m last year.

Too many tanking teams with cheap owners. It's not good for the sport.

I'd be in favor of both a cap and a floor, making all teams operate in the same frame of salary construction would be good for the balance of the league.
