Cheating scandal? Who cares? I just assume most of the organizations are cheating or bending the rules in some way anyway.
There’s also nothing he’s gonna do that is gonna prevent major markets from dominating baseball as long as there is no salary cap (and there won’t be considering the power of the MLBPA).
I’m mainly worried about the watchability of that sport and he’s taken significant steps to fix it.
