Normally, when it comes to labor issues in sports I tend to side with the players.
Until now...
Baseball needs a salary cap. The spending by a few elite teams is out of control and its causing an unfair divide between teams.

Ok... this sounds impressive, but remember the "Official" MVP awards didn't start until 1931... and interleague play didn't start until 1997 and not every team plays each other every season so the chances of reiging MVPs playing each other is limited.
