Rob Manfred deems Dodgers’ record-breaking payroll ‘great for the game’

  1. I think it’s good for the game to have higher payrolls. The main issue is others aren’t willing to do the same.

  2. I have to agree with him. It sucks for us as Giants fans. But that should inspire the front office to also be aggressive and smart about building a contender.

  3. He’s a putz never played a major league baseball game in his life. How much did the Dodgers devert his pay for

  4. Of course. Dodgers are basically printing money for the league at this point. If I was an LA fan I’d be ecstatic but for the rest of us, we’re fucked.

  5. I’m actually kinda surprised by this statement. Figured his job was to try and cool off the upper limits of spending.

  6. He’s such an asshole. He and his billionaire backers are ruining one of the cornerstones of my life and I’m bitter.

  7. A salary cap wouldn’t benefit the Giants because when the A’s move to Vegas the Giants will become the biggest revenue producer surpassing both the Dodgers and Yankees. It sucks right now but starting in 2028 the Giants owners will be out of excuses for not spending.

  8. Players getting paid more is great. Competitive imbalance is not great.

    If it forces other teams to raise payroll it is good for the game. The Giants and Padres did not do that this year.
