The deferred money is so ridiculous. 29 other teams find a way to compete without having to pay players 80 cents on the dollar.

OK, not to defend the practice, but: the Nats are far from the only team to do this. They may do it more often and more prominently than others, but the Mets and Red Sox seem to defer money often.
