    I saw the ending of the show and apparently Gerry was on there along with Jim Hart (Clevland Indians GM) and they were discussing major league baseball's salaries. Anyone catch the show? If you did, where there any good points or anything? Did Gerry act like the big boys with the big bills were ruining the league and not allowing him to sign anybody because he was too cheap? [​IMG]

    I caught that show tonight. It was actually really good. Basically, the Hun was sayin' that this is getting out of control and baseball can't continue like this. They also talked about how smaller market teams can't survive and may go bankrupt and how it's bad for the sport.

    He did mention something that 'stros fans may note -- Hun said that he was also worried about teams going into debt to sign players and then the team having probs paying its bills. The team can't afford the player, but they sign him because of fan pressure of needing to contend, so they do something just to make the fans happy, regardless if it the team loses tons of money.
