Toronto should be included in the Boston, NY, LA group not the smaller market KC group.
They have the money to spend (not at Boston/NY level but top 5 in MLB) they have chosen not to spend it this year because Anthopolous thinks they are a year or two away. Either way Toronto is not close to being a small market team that can or should complain about money.
And no there does not look like a strike coming as some of the smaller market clubs don't mind the system as a team like Pittsburgh and Florida can cover their payroll with the money they get from the big clubs and end up making a profit by being so cheap with their payrolls.
