"The economics of baseball are the big problem. The big clubs make a lot of money and the little clubs don't"

- Fay Vincent

About this Quote

This quote by Fay Vincent talks to the economic variation between Major League Baseball groups. The big clubs, such as the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers, have the financial resources to get the best gamers and construct the most competitive teams. This provides a competitive benefit over the smaller sized clubs, who do not have the same funds. This economic disparity has been a significant problem in baseball for many years, as the big clubs are able to dominate the sport and the small clubs are unable to compete. This has resulted in a lack of parity in the sport, as the very same groups tend to win every year. This quote highlights the requirement for a more equitable financial system in baseball, one that permits all groups to complete on an equal opportunity.
