Interesting list. I'm somewhat surprised Scott Boras didn't make it.

That's the difference between powerful and important. Boras hasn't done anything to change or improve the game.

Yea, getting players like ARod massive contracts isn't in the same boat as like Curt Flood who challenged MLB's anti-trust exemption which led to the creation of free-agency.

I am happy to see Satchel Paige make the list, who I consider to be possibly the most underrated pitcher in baseball history.
