Baseball Needs a Salary Cap. Sort of.

A proposal for fixing baseball's "Dodgers problem."

If you’re reading this, you’re one of the few people who haven’t signed a deferral-laden contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers this offseason.

Because L.A. has signed basically everyone else. Blake Snell. Roki Sasaki. Teoscar Hernandez. Michael Conforto. Hye-Song Kim. Blake Treinen. Tanner Scott. Kirby Yates. A team fresh off a 98-win, World Series Champion season (which they entered as the heavy favorites) has signed players that are worth a collective 14.3 wins, per Fangraphs.

And that doesn’t include a probable reunion with Clayton Kershaw, or any number of other moves they could still make - because at this point, it’s hard to know when they’ll decide it’s enough.
