Four of the last 10 World Series winners won their first championship. Seven of the last 12 champions either won their first or snapped a 30+ year title drought. Because baseball has a competitive balance problem.

Miz leaving a World Series clinching game mid AB while leading 4-0 against that team. Yeah, he wouldn't have closed that Game 4 successfully and Pat Myrphy knew it.

The Milwaukee Brewers will be reigning World Series champions as baseball goes into a work stoppage during which MLB owners will try to convince everyone that small-market teams can’t compete under the current system

MLB doesn’t need a salary cap.
It needs less owner protectionism.
The sport already has revenue sharing, a luxury tax that acts as a soft cap, an international draft, and the most extensive farm system in pro sports.
Small-market teams regularly make the playoffs and win titles when they’re well-run. The market is working. See tonight for some evidence of that!
A hard salary cap doesn’t create parity. It creates a ceiling on player pay while owners keep more of the pie.
Baseball’s uniqueness is the point.
No hard cap has produced both dynasties and underdogs. Forcing one now would just lock in today’s economics in the owners’ favor and call it “fairness.”
Let the teams compete.
Let the players get paid.
The sport is fine.
Watch the game tonight for the proof!

Will Smith was the best Catcher in baseball for like 1.5 seasons. Is it William Contreras now?

The Brewers are the first team ever to have the lead and be 3 outs away from a World Series title and lose the game without getting any of those 3 outs.

The greatest accomplishment in San Diego Padres history lasted less than 24 hours.
