700 WLW's Lance McAlister raises some good ideas on fixing MLB...

*Salary cap: I know...union will never go for it. The owners should have stuck to their guns in 1994 when they canceled the season and World Series. The NFL and NBA have a cap. Give fans hope and faith. Make it about the teams that are best at scouting, drafting and developing. Not about spending the most money. 75% of those in my poll question said the Yankees "bought" a World Championship. Not good.

*Add another Wild Card: If you can't slide in a salary cap...increase the playoff pool with one more wild card in each league. 3 division winners and 2 wild card teams in each league. Wild card winners play each other...winner gets team with best record.

*Eliminate the DH: Silliest rule in sport. No other sport plays the game by a different set of rules, based on the league. Adding to the mockery is using it in the AL park in the World Series. Play 162 games one way, then ask a NL team to add a bench bat to their lineup in the AL park and tell an AL team to subtract a bat in the NL park? Insane. Make a concession to the union by grandfathering in the rule and adding a 26th roster spot. Eliminate the DH by 2015

*World Wide Draft: An international player should not be able to offer his skills to the highest bidder. If a player from Japan wants to play in the majors then declare for the draft. Just like everyone else. The NBA has figured it out. Why can't MLB? It would be a step towards reducing the impact of big market teams and big spending.
