Well I am here to tell you that it needs to be done, these players are getting out of control. Selig is stuck too much on pleasing the American People and demanding a steroid investigation when he should be looking at a way to lower ticket prices! All the other leagues in America have Salary Caps and screw the players union.

I would use the Yanks as an example of the price of baseball spinning out of control, saying that they should be winning all the championships each year with their $ 200 million pay scale, but they don't.

A salary cap would lower prices and keep these players in check, also bringing more parity to the league.
