@shYNY_Yordy Sure would love to see any players outside of Judge and Ohtani do that, you won’t because players want the most money as possible. All they care about is money.
People seem to be missing the point, shocker.
Using the Padres, a team that hasn’t won a pennant, OR THEIR DIVISION, as the gold standard of small market teams because their owner spent above his means on bloated contracts to compete, is a stupid fucking argument.
As a baseball fan, I am more than happy to watch Ohtani, Judge and others wreck their careers because they don’t play for a year or more. As long as that brings a salary cap and makes baseball competitive for all teams.
@RyanCohen24 Nope I want to go into a season thinking my team has a chance. Maybe because you are a padres fan, you think you may have a fighters chance. But outside of the biggest spenders. There are teams who go into each season already tuning out because of the disparity between teams!
@brianros1 Nope. They are spending money mostly.
Seeing players getting 700 million dollar contracts. More than any US sport.
I don’t see any NBA, NFL, MLS, Hockey player getting that type of money fully guaranteed!
