So Hank wants to get rid of his AAAA teams? Under that arrangement, there’d only be five teams in the MLB and when the hell are San Francisco or Saint Louis “minor league” markets? (He *does* know the Dodgers moved, right?)

Great, now I can’t think of any snark for the Brewers.

That’s kind of what Williams was alluding to, I think, James. While, thanks to Target Field, the Twins have another year of virtually certain sell-outs and can count on that revenue stream to offset their increased expenses, the Sox know their attendance will be determined by whether they are still competitive in September. On paper, there’s no reason they shouldn’t still be packing fans in seats, but every team is just an injury or two away from mediocrity and if that happens to Chicago, Williams says they will lose money.

Of course, I’ll somehow manage to keep from shedding too many tears if that happens to them.

if the Sox are losing money, its because they are terrible and no one is going to the games.
