Iconic baseball writer Bill James, in 1987, frustrated with MLB's labour stoppages and the decline of the minor leagues, wrote that the minors 'were an abomination... if you're selling a sport and the players don't care about winning, that's not a sport. That's a fraud... an exhibition masquerading as a contest.'
