Slightly off tangent here, I've always said pay players a teacher's or cop's salary and see who REALLY plays for the 'love of the game', THEN I might be interested.
Anyways, back to topic...........................
The salaries drive me nuts too John but they do have caps on teams and revenue sharing. If a team goes over they pay a fines and the money is distributed to other teams. I don't know what the answer is to lower salaries other than fans going away and that won't happen entirely. The only reason I still watch MLB cannot be mentioned here. It'd have to go in the unmoderated section. But I can say MLB has not gone the way of the NFL which I have completely abandoned.
