Also, in case anyone is curious, my reasoning for proposing this is threefold:
1) Cash has stabilized, banks are largely cleaned out, and budgets are running much more normally. So cash has become important again. So teams like NYY, NYM, BOS, and others are raking tons of cash and many of those teams are pumping that money into making even more cash in the future. (FLA, DET, and others are doing this to. Not that I don't condone that, far from it, it just shows there is money that could be better distributed)
2) Winterball has been shrinking for quite some time as well, another indication that money can be better distributed
3) A 150M gap between top revenue and bottom is just too much. Closing that by 30-40% (down to 90-100M gap) seems perfectly reasonable and doesn't hinder the fact that there are still a wide range of markets to attract GMs.
