Seriously, what the f*** is all of your problems????!!!! There was no b*ch*ng when the Yankees did all this

Hahahah, what!?!?

That assertion just proves you don't pay enough attention to what happens on the east coast, or within any baseball discussion forum. Bitching about the Yankees payroll is a favourite past time for many baseball fans outside of the Bronx. You couldn't be further from the truth to make that claim. Wow!

Not only is it insane that the Dodgers payroll for next season could push as high as $250 million(!), its even crazier that the team they have all this money invested in isn't all that great. It would be one thing if they were pushing those numbers and they looked like the 2009 Yankees, but they're still going to have to battle just to win their division at this point.

Yeah, Kramerica is right. There's always plenty of bitching about the Yankees and their payroll. In fact, the phrase "Yankees are ruining baseball" (with the quotation marks) gives 43,300 results on Google. "Dodgers are ruining baseball" has only 57. Probably not an exact metric or anything, but it shows you that people have complained--and still complain--about the Yankees and their spending.

And I am a Mets fan who hates the Yankees, so I'm not a Yankee apologist or anything.

Christ Dodgers, why don't you just build a bloody great bonfire with all of that money in centerfield. It'd be just as effective.

Twitter is buzzing about a potential Rays-Royals trade going down.

Rays give up James Sheilds and Wade Davis for Wil Myers and prospects.

Yeah I was sad at first about dealing Shields and Davis, but then I read about the players the Rays got in return, and it seems like Tampa got the better side of the deal

When you're dealing with Dayton Moore (literally), you can always expect to be on the better end of a trade.

Besides, Shields is getting expensive, the Rays have deep rotational strength, and they now have a legit bat in the future to pair with Longoria. As long as Friedman is the GM, the Rays are in excellent hands.

I'm sorry, but this is just ridiculous. Never mind competitive balance, baseball needs a salary cap to save idiotic big-market teams like the Dodgers from themselves.

Seriously, what the f*** is all of your problems????!!!! There was no b*ch*ng when the Yankees did all this, or the Red Sox, or the Phillies, or the Cubs.

But when it's the Dodgers trying to improve themselves...

I love how you deleted the Red Sox from my post in order to bolster your temper tantrum. Disingenuous much?

As a Clippers fan and semi-Kings fan, I also get a kick out of being accused of "hating all things LA".
