The Major League Baseball (MLB) is gearing up for another potential work stoppage next year, and the spending habits of the Los Angeles Dodgers are at the center of the debate. While some are concerned about the MLB implementing a salary cap or floor, star players Manny Machado and Bryce Harper are praising the Dodgers' approach. They argue that more teams should be operating like the Dodgers, who have successfully signed top talent like Edwin Díaz and Kyle Tucker to hefty contracts. But here's where it gets controversial: Harper, who is represented by mega-agent Scott Boras, believes the Dodgers' success comes from more than just their spending. He praises the organization's infrastructure, citing 'unbelievable' drafting and developing. However, the Dodgers' spending has also sparked debate among MLB owners, who are concerned about the team's extreme spending. The question remains: how long will the current collective bargaining agreement (CBA) remain in place, and what will MLB owners do to try to change it?
