Nap Lajoie argues that modern baseball is driven by business rather than sentiment. He cites Dave Foutz of the 1880s St. Louis team who received advances on future contracts totaling over 1,000 dollars after a season. Lajoie believes today’s moguls would likely not extend such support to star players under similar pressure.
