MLB's Salary Cap, Salary Floor Proposal Would Have Major Impact on Reds

MLB proposed a $245.3M salary cap and $171.2M floor in the next CBA, with a 50/50 revenue split between league and players starting 2027. The Reds ($130M current payroll) would need to add $40M+ to meet the floor, while the gap with big-market teams shrinks from $200M to ~$74M.
