The best you can realistically hope for over the next few years is another big enhancement in baseball’s revenue-sharing system, hopefully with stricter rules requiring teams receiving those funds to spend them on payroll.

Want to guess where Jeffrey Loria is from? Hint: he went to Stuyvesant High.

Probably the best long-term solution is another team in the NYC area that would water down the TV revenue available to the Yankees. But yeah, revenue sharing with a bit more teeth is the best that we’re probably going to get.
