I know this may sound counterintuitive, but those teams are relegated to also-ran status because the MLBPA is too strong, and severely top heavy.
The players association will never approve a salary cap, because the stars of the game would rather make $25-$40 million dollars a year, than approve something that would increase the salaries of the lower tier players while also leveling the playing field for small market teams.
The MLBPA is the strongest union in professional sports, yet it actively craps on 80% of its members because the top 20% is too FN greedy.
