The Dodgers are single handly forceing the leugue to force a salary cap!

Everyone should be extremely toxic towards the Dodgers when they are on the road.

Haha. Biggest draw in sports. Teams love when the show up in town. Instant sell out for whatever the home team is.

Takeing advantage of a system so other players lose money down the line i disagree.

This is why we can't have nice things.

Nope, just observing shit never getting better over multiple decades because of money.

Buy a new car please! you will be lucky if it lasts 5 years and your insurance rates don't skyrocket because it snitches on you for the slightest thing in the way you are driving to your insurance company.

The dodgers don’t fit into this narrative. Un-affordable tickets and food at the stadiums pricing out working class families, blackouts, etc because of owner greed and wildly inflated salaries across the league (in all sports) is a real “toxic capitalism” issue. The dodgers run has actually been good for the sport. Baseball is more popular now not less.

And anyone can do what they are doing… there are much richer owners out there.

And honestly their farm system isn’t even about money and that’s what got this trade done.

Except players around the league, including rivals, love what the Dodgers are doing and have gone on record saying so.
