There is no such thing as cheap owners.
Selig said like 3 years ago only 6 teams in Major Leauge Baseball that year made money. True or not, who else is to argue that's not true? Did you see Tiger Stadium this year when the Yankees or Red Sox weren't in town? They had 2/3rds the stadium empty. I woulden't doubt it one bit very few teams made money.
Baseball needs a salary cap. There are markets that are huge, New York and Chicago to name just 2. Some do much better then others (Again, yankers and the cubbies) and some do very poorly (Flordia for being the WS Champs, realy didn't draw well this season).
With that said, caps, and revenue sharing are somthing that has to happen. It's good for baseball.
