Even with all the Dodgers' spending, there will never be a salary cap in Major League Baseball
67% Informative
The idea of a salary cap has stampeded back into public discourse 30 years ago .
The Dodgers have spent $384.5 million dollars in free agency this winter , a figure that doesn’t include a $74 million extension for utilityman Tommy Edman or signing of vaunted Japanese hurler and international amateur Roki Sasaki .
In a poll conducted by MLB Trade Rumors , more than two-thirds of voters — 24,409 people — were in favor of a cap.
Current MLBPA executive director Tony Clark has, during his 12-year tenure atop the union, remained fervently opposed to an artificial spending limit.
A salary cap is the ultimate restriction on player value and player salary.
The union will almost certainly never accept one, regardless of how hard MLB and owners push.
