Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal
Abstract
The note argues that Major League Baseball (MLB) can address its labor disputes, competitive imbalances, and economic challenges by revoking its antiquated antitrust exemption and implementing a salary cap and floor system. These reforms would promote fairness, incentivize competitive spending, and prevent future work stoppages, aligning MLB's economic structure with other major sports leagues.
