The thing that actually makes sense to increase parity while not rewarding bad owners is to allow teams to move wherever they want.

That way you can probably expect something like the Reds moving to New York, or the Royals moving to Boston. That way you are more likely to balance out the market. That way you are more likely to have ambitious owners investing even more in improving and marketing MLB. The Angels were turned into a popular and successful team that way. How great it would be if some billionaire can just move the Rays to New York and make it big like the Angels?
