## Resource

The St. Louis Cardinals’ surprise World Series wins in 2006 and 2011 prove that a salary cap isn’t necessary to build a championship team—these mid-market squads won through smart drafting, homegrown talent, and strategic trades, not big-money signings, challenging MLB owners’ push for financial equality.
