I am imagining a team of Bader, Buehler, Mahle and the like chugging through the season to an 82-82 record. I can hardly express how little interest I would have in that. It would probably feature another 50 R, 50 RBI season of Arenado too.
How much interest are you going to have in a 60-102 season?
Stay on point and on task and just take whatever attendance they get.
Keeping the NTC’s does not take them off point because those guys are not blocking anyone or preventing the buildup of the farm system.
Just taking what attendance they can get sounds ok unless you are the guy responsible for drumming up revenue.
