I'm glad there is no strike because if they did strike, the fans would never return to baseball as they did in the past. The last strike in 94-95, baseball has never fully recovered as it used to be. Last year and this year, the fans were finally coming back to baseball. And hopefully they (major league baseball) realizes that if they did strike, they would lose.
And for the salaries, my god no ones needs to be paid like Derek Jeter (by the way I hate the Yankees). No one is worth that much. I don't care people when people say oh they are professional athletes, they should get the money, Screw that.
More of my peeves.....I do think they should have a salary cap, or at least limitation oh how much an owner can spend on a player. Right now, whoever has the deepest pocket like the Yankees, have to best players money can afford. What about the owners who can't afford players like that, they can't compete with those with big bank teams.
All in all the fans lose, ticket prices are gonna rise because of this strike crap, the people who barely could afford to buy tickets now, are not going to come back because to the ticket price in the future. Sorry to say Baseball will not be American's favorite past time.
P.S. I'm also glad they didn't strike, because if they did my A's would be screwed (15 game winning streak, 1st place in AL West and 4 games in front of the Angels, YEAH!!!!!!). Just like in 94/95 the A's were in 1st place and the Giants were in 1st place and probably they was going to be another Battle of the Bay. Anyways, that's my take.
