I can't wait until 2039 when every team is emphasizing contact and speed and then we would have former players blaming the lack of a Kyle Schwarber type in the league on analytics
Its called a market inefficiency.
If everyone is doing one thing - then "another thing" is going to have more value.
Teams that are on the forefront of what that is will be successful initially.
Then everyone else will copy that, and that market inefficiency goes away ... until a team find some other market inefficiency, and the sort of "cycle" continues ...
This is true about baseball, and about just about anything else.

After reading all the comments if you're gonna understand why MLBPA is so vehemently against the idea of a salary cap because it doesn't fix shit beside allowing the owners to do the things they've been colluding to do for nearly 50 years
I don’t follow the NFL with the same rigor as MLB. A legit question: I see fans (such as the Cardinals) imploring owners to sell the team
What am I missing? What would new owners do? It’s a salary cap league, team salaries are relatively similar outside of elite QBs, etc

His control is still elite, but the fastball velo had dropped 1.5-2 MPH and he immediately got lit up
But I'm supposed to believe that pitchers nowadays can just aim 90s at the corners and be the second coming of Greg Maddux like some of the baseball people on here always preach

Ben Rice become a pinch-hitter for a couple of months might be the answer
He shouldn't be getting 600 at bats this year anyway.
Let him fill the Amed Rosario role. 3-4 at bats every 2 days. Then back to lineup by July.
Cam Schlittler to the bullpen for a couple of months might be the answer.
He shouldn’t be throwing 200 innings this year anyway.
Let him fill the Michael King role. 2-3 innings at a time every 3-4 days. Then back to the rotation by July.

Fans that like to advocate salary cap often refer to other major sports leagues but they overlook one fact: those leagues have centralized TV deal. Every team earn the same. That's why you can expect every team to spend the same.
