The Houston Astros are the most profitable team in MLB history

I don't think why people are beyond pissed about this. I know its a scumbag move by the Astros owner, but he is treating it like a business and making a shitload of cash.  Buy Low, Sell High.  So that is that.

HOWEVER.... baseball is supposed to be a game.  So in a game there are rules and I think this is why MLB needs to apply a hard salary floor of $60 million per team.  Because teams like the Yankees, Red Sox, Dodgers and Phillies are contributing to the Astros financial fortune via revenue sharing.  Its like a weird sports combo of capitalism and socialism.  I think applying this hard cap will also make MLB a more competitive game. I mean the Royals and Pirates are always profitable and they are usually (until recently) a fucking mess.  Basically if you just mail it in you will get paid, there's really no motivation for those franchises to succeed.  I don't even know why I'm bitching about this because MLB will never change.  Applying a simple rule like this seems common sense, but how can I trust an organization to make a common sense decision if they cant even suspend A-Rod after he was caught red-handed with steroids.
