Reply to "MLB's "One Baseball" Plan a Landscape-Changer"

Yeah, the players will definitely not benefit from that, less choices and less leverage.

I doubt however that mlb can be stopped. Amateur players and new pro players just are the easiest way to save money as they have no leverage unless they are multi sport stars (which is extremely rare).

Also the notion that it is about the quality of the game is probably wrong. Mlb doesn't care about quality of the game as long they have the best players, quality of play is better now than 30 years ago and there are less fans, pitchers averaging 97 instead of 93 won't draw more fans.

The reason really is saving money.
