I was at this game...and truthfully, I was walking out of the stadium when he hit it. Haha. Fortunately, I hadn't walked out yet, so I still got to see it, followed by a walk off in the 10th. Fun times.

Oh good. Another large market, deep pocket team buying a FA player. Baseball is broken.
That would still be the case had he signed with the Phils. But you’re right and I think another strike/lockout is inevitable.

The system sucks and is slanted heavily toward the players. The owners need to wrest some control back.

There should be a hard cap and some reasonable limits on contract guarantees.

Agree. Phils are a big market, deep pocket team also. MLB needs a salary cap AND floor.
