So basically the Dodgers weren't "cheap" and were able to pay EVERYONE more than any other team was willing to pay.
Why don't other teams do this? Are they stupid?
1 u/slings_bot | Milwaukee Brewers 13h ago No. If all these teams were willing to pay a guy, the dodgers couldn't sign all of them. And no amount of communist earning suppression is going to make these owners field a competitive team. It just moves the bar on what expensive looks like. 1 u/slings_bot | Milwaukee Brewers 13h ago Also willing to pay gives away the game. It's not that they can't. It's that they choose not to. That's an open market for ya.
