A-Rod makes more than the Astros

This is the same story, just insert different team in different yr. a few years ago it was rays, then marlins, then A's, then pirates. There is at least one team each year that pays nothing to "Rebuild". Owners way to make a lot of money and then they start signing people a year or two later.

They sad thing about this is the Astros get about 30mil from the luxury tax. So baseball needs a salary min that the teams need to at least spend what they are given.

And when I posed that to the Rays GM 6yrs ago. He said they had millions tied up in the minors "wait and see". He showed me!
