    I agree but you could say that about every sport - Too many NFL teams, there' aren't enough quarterbacks, too many NBA teams, not enough superstar, only 5-6 teams have a shot in each sport to realistically win a title most years.

        The two Fla teams need to be eliminated and maybe two more.

            Agreed.

            Sometimes my local high school draws more in attendance than the Rays do....and the Rays have a good team!

            I actually attended a Rays game one time. It was the worst stadium I’ve ever been in. Also, there empty seats everywhere.

              A rays fan once told me it’s a shit hole but it’s our shit hole..... At least the marlins stadium is much better, but fuk they suck balls...

                    More teams = more TV revenue.

                      Yup. And for some owners in less popular markets, buying a team is a long term hold. The value of every franchise goes up over time, history shows. So some short term losses here and there will get paid off if/when the owner wants to sell.

                        Baseball needs robot umps. Games ruined by horrible umpires. I’m usually a purist, but this shit is getting ridiculous. Oakland getting hosed right now on two balls a foot off the plate.
