By now, we have heard far too many times about how the Yankees need to get under the $189 million threshold (a figure which includes not only MLB salary, but also benefits such as health insurance, for the entire 40-man roster) by 2014.

The New York Times has a great story up on the decline of Puerto Rican baseball:

Some long-needed things like a defense for gay and lesbian players, HGH testing, 26-man Doubleheader rosters, luxury tax tweaks and changes to the free agent compensation [...]
Hat Tip River Ave Blues for the Twitter Link:
Source: New MLB CBA said to include a hard cap and a floor for international signings. Unclear when it would go into effect.
Obviously, the details are a little light now. If the floor is low enough and the cap is high enough, [...]
