I'd say there is nothing wrong so no point in discussing it further. We discussed it a couple seasons ago and pretty much came to that concsensus.
it's hard to explain but, it'd be a minimum cap IE like a floor. And it's more geared towards larger market teams. The Yankees atm are 100M under budget. That's not fair to the small market teams that don't even HAVE a 100M budget, let alone the cash flow that NY has. In this scenario NY would be expected to have a payroll, about 60% of their budget or be penalized.
again it's a way to eliminate money and the best way to eliminate money is force ppl to spend it. This is one of those ways.
