Baseball Revenue Sharing
As the seasons progress in major league baseball, the economic structure of baseball is suffering from numerous problems, which are currently allowing for the competitive balance to be less than ideal. Baseball is faced with problems amongst the revenues, which there teams are receiving. This disparity in revenues is causing some teams to not be able to sign players that they need to compete: whereas, teams like the Yankees, and Braves can go out and sign basically whomever they want, and have payrolls, which are surpassing 100 million for a season. What I propose to do, in order to solve the problems with baseball is to revamp the current Luxury Tax system, come up with a minimum and maximum salary level, and develop a revenue sharing program, which will help the lesser teams out. I feel that these changes will allow for baseball to be more competitive every season, and would allow some small market teams not to move. Baseball is in need of Restructuring due to the current disparity amongst all the teams in terms of revenues. When considering any possible changes in the baseball structure, you must consider them from three different perspectives. Owners
