Episode description

Is MLB a fair playing field for all 30 teams without a Salary Cap?  The 2014 Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees have enormous team payrolls while teams like the Rays and Astros this year are nearly $200M lower.

4 of the top 10 Major Baseball Player salaries today are paid by the Yankees.  Not many teams generate revenues to fathom the possibility of affording that.  Would a Salary Cap save the day for teams that will never be able to generate the massive income of the big market teams?  Tune in, I suspect most everyone will be surprised by the answer to this controversial question!
