Arbitrary numbers that lay down specific caps & floors, or schemes that fix payrolls to a certain percentage of revenues, are what skew it.so does revenue sharing, luxury taxes, and a portion of revenue coming from TV contracts. I think salary ranges would, at least for the foreseeable future, result in the players as a whole making more money. But there are clearly other options.Like maybe putting minor leaguers in the union and actually paying them.
