Draft reprisals and the PB cap

Posted By Craig

Absolutely. Brian sees the issue on principle not personality. Owners can do what they want. The luxury tax has not stopped Steinbrenner and it shouldn't. In being accountable to the league he must pay a price for his actions. The price is not necessarily bad but lends towards integrity.If Cape Cod is stripped of draft picks does he make the same deal....probably, yet his exclusion from the draft allows the other teams to grow and not even equally but grow nontheless due to having a deeper talent pool to choose from.
