Trying to sneak this one in...
Forbes latest MLB franchise valuations (click to enlarge):
Cardinals #8 overall, especially in revenue, was a bit of a surprise.
How good/smart do the Marlins and Rays look?
Yanks "value" increased 15%. Guess they don't mind the Stadium's empty seats!
Nats, or really "the Nots", lost 12% in franchise value. The euphoria of getting a franchise sure waned pretty quickly, eh?
The Operating Income column can be misleading, but only the Yanks and Detroit LOST money....and look how much money the Nots and Marlins made!!!

For the Marlins and the Nots (I love that so much, I must now use it forever), the operating income equation probably goes something like this: (craploads of income) - (minuscule costs [salaries/amenities/etc]) = craploads of income!
I'm very happy to be a fan of a team that invests most of the money it makes.
