MLB club finances are broken and the commissioner is constantly trying to ruin the game with changes to try and bring in the TikTok generation. Dark times for fans of 25 of the 30 teams.

There's a work stoppage coming in a couple of years that will probably cost a whole season...but something's gotta give. Things are out of control right now. The big markets can't keep being allowed to control the game and continually dominate free agency. They have to find a way to bring some semblance of parity and fairness to the sport.
