Maybe we should consider making it mandatory for all teams to fill certain starting positions on a daily basis and allow salary exemptions for replacements of injured players. In real life, you are require to field an entire team.
Corey,You have described the problem precisely. For YOU to have 3 starting MIs means that another team would only have ONE, since there are only a fixed number of starters in major league baseball if you exclude platoons. Many teams can't even field a full roster, because they have traded away starters for prospects.Jake,I would support your idea of expanding the rosters. I believe that would be beneficial to the small market teams.
I dont like any of these proposed changes. The league is not broken, it's very very easy to rebuild and contend. The entire issue lies with the fact that incompetent owners took control of teams. Here is one idea: make any incoming new owner pay a deposit. They get the money back after a certain number of days of continuing activities.
The deposit idea is a good one as it keeps the league but requires collateral. I assume the deposit is returned no matter what?
