Phil does his thing.

Maybe the better model is this: teams are given a budget and will spend to that budget.  There’s a fixed level of wins available.  Wins are paid at a constant level overall, with a premium for free agents and a discount for arb, and virtually flat for pre-arb players.  Call it “the sports model”.
