I am okay with the luxury tax as long as it also establishes a MINIMUM salary as well. There are teams out there with cheap ass owners who just sit back and wait for their tax payment to come in. I say you can only get your share of the tax if you field a quality team. It is supposed to promote parity between big and small market teams right? Well let's see them put their money where their mouth is.
Don't pocket it you POS cheap bastards. Trot a out team that can win and see what happens. Just look at the Angels and the Marlins. You don't need the highest salary to win. . . Just a reasonable one.
