Unlike the NBA everyone likes and follows their own team and doesn't care about 2 random "superstar" matchups on ESPN Sunday night. It's more local fandom.

Yeah but it's completely soulless. They have no fanbase and no one cares. Yeah it's a big city... A city of people who don't really give a fuck about baseball and it's a lot of snowbirds and transplants. They're one of those teams that makes more money off of fans when come to see the opposing team than root for the home team. And anyway what is the average D Backs fan like, it's just some beaner cholo which hopped the border yesterday. Fuck them.

Toronto is the fourth-largest market in North America after NYC, LA and Chicago. It is also a very international city and you will see Blue Jays hats worn all over the world. It's probably one of the best franchises for the global success of MLB.

Not 100% sure, but it might be because that would nearly kill the Bills who get 15-20% of their live attendance from southern Ontario.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bills_Toronto_Series

There are also two Canadian football teams in the greater Toronto area and they would likely be killed as well, and presumably the entire CFL would also be killed because they are two of the most popular teams.

Pirates. Yeah, they're an old historic franchise but they have sucked ass for like 40 straight years now. Pittsburghers like football and hockey more anyway.

The Angels always get good attendance and are in the #2 market in the US. They should not be on the list. When they get a new stadium they'll be a top MLB team.

Idk what he's talking about. Angels are a tiny fanbase. It's a bitch to get to Anaheim from LA. You have to sit in traffic for an hour. Where else are they pulling people from, San Diego, San Bernardino? OC is just an awkward place there's not usually a lot of reason to go there and it feels out of the way. The Ducks for example are the smallest market in the entire NHL. Where are you going to build a new stadium anyway? It's already close to the freeway and has easy parking. What could possibly entice more people to go to Angels games. I just don't see it. If you put it anywhere else it would be impossible to get to. OC has no downtown area, no real concentration of people. And Dodgers fans are real dug in I can't see expanding the fanbase much.

They are always in the top half of attendance.

They will probably build a new stadium in the parking lot of the current stadium. Everyone in OC and the inland empire is an Angels fan. That's like 8 million people in Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino counties.

Nobody cares about the NHL.

I'm not saying we need a soulless Charlotte franchise but the Expos could never fill the stadium. They literally had $1 (Canadian!) game nights, two for one promotions, promotions where if the team lost fans got refunded. I mean, it was sad sack. Idk why you get a fuzzy feeling about them. They were ass.

But there's a larger issue: the Canadian economy cannot compete with America for spending. NHL Canada hasn't been relevant since the early 90s. Their economy is basically not growing at all and they'll never be spendmos. They just can't compete financially. There are tons of places in the US that can support MLB franchise.

They do crazy business in the 50+ demo. They are the only thing that sells regional commercials in certain parts of the country. Don't forget about radio ads. Boomers and up will listen to baseball all summer long and absorb all the sponsors. It's necessary to entire regional economies.

baseball's become a regional game but it still makes tons of money. just the gate and concessions from 81 home games is huge, then you have tv network deals, corporate sponsorships etc. lots of money to be made.

i watch basically every red sox game during the season. there are plenty of other baseball degenerates like me. imo its the best sport.
