Dodgers Lack Funds to Meet Payroll

oldtimefamilybaseball:

Everyone else in LA is broke, so it would make sense that the Dodgers are too. Frank McCourt does have a few ideas to help make ends meet, however:

  • Start only six players per game with forced vacation time for bench players.
  • Cut bullpen, make starters really earntheir paychecks. 
  • Turn off the stadium lights between innings.
  • Charge fans different prices depending on when they enter. A fan coming in the first inning will be charged more than the vast majority who enter around the third. 
  • Auction off starting shortstop position to the highest bidder.

New Mets slogan: Hey, at least we’re not the Dodgers.
