I don’t know this guy at www.east-coast-bias.com but he’s got some thoughts on a luxury tax system that would at least help level the playing field in Major League Baseball.

It’s a bit convoluted and I’m not sure it does enough to punish “small market” teams that try to ride the coattails of the luxury tax so they don’t have to spend any money out of their own pockets (Yes, this is you, Jeffrey Loria).

But it’s an interesting starting point. Tony and I may revisit this after the holidays and shoot some ideas of our own. In the meantime, do any of you have ideas on how to fix the game?

Or do you think we’re all wet? If you think things are perfect you’re entitled to your opinion as well, I suppose. But please explain why you think it’s okay that the highest spending team can outspend the lowest spending team by 10 times?

I’d like to know your reasoning.
