I don't know what is going on, but I'm starting to become a conspiracy theorist. All the stories last off-season were about the teams that were re-setting their luxury tax, or making sure they don't go into it so they could be prepared to go wild this off-season, and now crickets. Some fun luxury tax facts - - Last year was the first year the Yankees didn't pay in its existence (since 2003) - Last year was the lowest total for all teams since the first year (2018 14,337,188 - 2003 11,798,357) - The Yankees have paid about %62 of the total tax collected - The Yankees and Dodgers combined have paid %89 of it - The single most paid by a team is $43,567,472 by the 2015 Dodgers
