We will find out. This team just won a championship so there isn't any reason not to raise the payroll higher than it's ever been. The attendance and t.v. numbers are up higher than even their owner expected.

If he doesn't pay now, he won't ever do it.

The Royals are the 29th? largest market in MLB and we started the year at 16th in salary and added Cueto, Zobrist, etc. I doubt we can go much higher.
The TV numbers don't help because we can't renegotiate our shitty deal.

No, but an additional 1 million people in the park is good for at least another $80 million in revenue.

I think 140 is a pretty reasonable mark for the Rpyals, as long as they're drawing that well.

Well, I doubt the average person is spending $80, especially since most of the additional 1 million people are mostly in cheaper seats.

With food, parking, merch...it might be close.

I think $50/ticket sold is a pretty reasonable average, $5 for parking, $25 for concessions.
Have been told that's pretty close to the mark.

They've had a large increase in young people attenfing, too. Which equates to more liquor sales.

The new Craft & Draft pub probably was a nice bump too

And this does not include postseason or postseason TV revenue.

If they resign Zobrist, Young and Gordon, they'll likely surpass the 3 million mark in 2016 and if they get to another World Series, it'll happen again in 2017.

It seems like a no-brainer to me but then again, I'm not deeply knowledgeable about MLB's salary scale.

I thought the t.v. deal only had 1 more year to it.

Nope, four more ****ing years. Royals are locked in at $20M in TV revenue every year. Compare that to $250M for the Dodgers. Brutal.

At the time it was written, KC had not seen the playoffs and the 20 mil looked good to Mr. Glass.

I wonder if it's an option for the Royals to buyout the last four years of the deal... Pay $80M to make $250M?
