Congratulations to Cubs on the three awards. I figured Rookie of the Year was a lock but Cy Young and Manager of the Year weren't.

Baseball needs a salary cap. ~ Annual observation.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Does MLB need a salary cap, or do they just need fewer crazy organizations?
The Red Sox had the 3rd highest salary in baseball last year, and finished bottom of their division. The Royals had the 16th highest salary, and beat the Mets(21st in payroll) in the World Series.
The rest of the final 4 was Toronto (10th) and Cubs(14th).
Best part of the AL playoffs? Yankees(2nd in payroll) losing to the Astros(29th in payroll) in the Wild Card game.
I don't think the Dodgers, Red Sox or Yankees know what to do with all of that money they are making, so they just throw it away.

It means the biggest names will gravitate to the biggest spenders.
Apparently MLB is fine with that. And as HT notes, it doesn't necessarily translate to World Series victories.

From Yahoo Sports...
The Chicago Cubs on Friday agreed to terms with veteran right-hander John Lackey on a two-year, $32-million contract, sources said, filling their rotation behind Jake Arrieta and Jon Lester.
I like this far better than giving out 120 million dollarsKeep on Civin'
