"Making money hand over fist" is one of those sorts of vague expressions that lets the reader believe what they want to believe, and react accordingly, but we really don't have to go there.
We think they made about an extra $10-15MM on the postseason. They will probably sell about 300,000 extra tickets next season. This stuff can be quantified.
None of that leads to a top 1/3 in baseball payroll, at least until our terrible TV deal expires or is redone.
