A big “Duh!” to Major League Baseball

I like Major league baseball and I think that it is the most fair of all the professional sports. The “salary cap” in the NFL and even worse in the NBA was completely destroyed the level-playing field that was it was supposed to provide for. Revenue sharing in MLB is by far the best of the 3 major sports leagues. But that doesn’t mean that baseball is without fault. Look no further than the draft. I find it appalling that the best prospects in the draft always seem to fall to the big market teams over signability concerns. That is ludicrous to me. And no international draft at all? That’s absurd. Gord Ash, the Brewers assistant GM, should take his list of simple points directly to Bud Selig’s office.
