"Small market blues. MLB needs a salary cap badly. I love baseball, but it's just not right that the Dodgers have a $550M payroll and the Bucs have like 37 dollars. Wait…*checks couch cushions*…38 dollars and 76 cents," one fan jokingly wrote.
"I'm so sick of this ownership," one fan wrote, urging the actor to do something about it. "I wish you would put together a group and buy them."
