Another reason I think the financials are messed up. In the offseason, a 29 year old, 2 star rated catcher got awarded a TWENTY MILLION DOLLAR contract in arbitration, with next year's estimate at 33 million plus, looking at his team's financial obligations report.
So now, i think it doesn't have anything to do with the team having money to burn. The "system" decided this player should be paid that amount of money, even though I've set the average superstar salary to 11 million. There's something wrong here.
