Been true for several years now that MLB opts to exploit a weird market quirk - that small outlets (Fox Sports 1/2, now streamers) will overpay for a small but intense audience - instead of thinking about the good of the game overall and long-term. Awful for fans, almost certainly bad for MLB.

It’s been a Lucy/Charlie relationship for quite a while. “No, no, we really will spend on players now. Pinky swear.”

Until owners open their books, the default assumption should be that they're making money hand over fist and they don't want the players to know it. And opening the books should mean cash flow statements for all affiliated entities, not just showing paper losses for the team.
