it'll be a long time before you'll have to get out any stationery to pen anything, though.

He's presided over the worst three-year stretch and probably will over the worst four-year stretch. That's quite a hole to dig out of.

Even with a massive salary floor, it's unlikely there will be a salary cap. Major-leaguers would not be so dumb.

And no matter how owners hate the biggest spenders, it's unlikely that a team would be force-fed full penalties according to rules struck after the fact.

This prediction is eyewash.

In the current climate of professional sports, there is no bill coming due*. 30 teams fall out of bed every morning making money. Teams make decisions as if WANTING to lose money (cough cough White Sox) and they don't lose money.

*besides stopping the game cold in 2027 to enforce a cap on players

You know that writing to a baseball website about covering games you feel have no meaning has no meaning, right?

interesting take, but no, being 6-0 means you are undefeated, just as the 0-5 Tigers are winless. We don't make the rules, that's just the way it is.
