What should Bud Selig's next focus be?

Bud Selig won our presidential poll by a wide margin of 10-3 over his toughest competitor, Roger Goodell.  What should Bud Selig's next focus be?

Was hoping retire would be an option, since it's not I'll go with salary cap..and a salary floor for that matter.

Baseball needs a cap, regardless of what some say.

If Selig turns down this trade, which as posters have stated, is not any more unbalanced than several recent trades, he might as well say goodbye to baseball in Canada.
