I'm watching the Reds feed on MLB TV. They're discussing the amazing journey of our Franchise....how we built in '97....win...then tear down the team.....rebuild....win in '03....tear down the team....rebuilding now....as they were going to the commercial, the announcer asked what were the Marlins doing that the Reds weren't?..They haven't come back to the topic yet.

Big money expected from new stadium Associated Press Published Monday, April 28, 2008 MINNEAPOLIS ? Carl Pohlad and the Minnesota Twins expect to really cash in on the new stadium. The ballpark isn?t scheduled to open until 2010. But the Twins expect to make $1.2 billion to $1.5 billion in new revenue during the length of the 30-year lease. ?That?s all new money,? said Twins president Dave St. Peter, estimating the annual new revenue from the stadium at about $40 million to $50 million. Unlike the Metrodome, the Twins? deal in the new stadium calls for them to receive money from most areas of the park. That includes parking, concessions, suite sales and nonbaseball events. Pohlad and the Twins also will receive money from the naming rights, which is estimated to bring somewhere between $8 million and $15 million a year into the team?s coffers. The Twins have already sold 47 of the 55 private suites and expect to have them all gone by the time the stadium opens. The 14 most expensive suites are already off the market, and when all is said and done, the suites alone will bring in as much as $240 million over the life of the lease. ?This is the antithesis of the Metrodome,? St. Peter said. ?We are going from the worst lease situation in Major League Baseball to one of the best.? Consequently, the value of the team has risen 33 percent ? to $288 million ? according to Forbes magazine. As revenues increase, so will expenses, St. Peter said. The Twins are putting about $167 million of their own money into the project, which will cost about $517 million. They also will spend about $16 million a year in the new park, four times the $4 million a year they spend in operating costs at the Metrodome. The average price of a ticket at the 40,000-seat park will be $17, the same as the Metrodome, said Kevin Smith, executive director of public affairs. All the increased money generated will trickle down to the team?s payroll for players, St. Peter said. The Twins will continue to pour 50 to 52 percent of their revenue into player salaries, which means it could approach $100 million after just $71 million last year. http://www.in-forum.com/Sports/articles/199484

can anybody tell me the pitching matchups because my dad only goes to good ones and he said that olsen was pitching on wed. and he said he heard that on the radio becuase of the off day. but i saw on espn that he is pitching thursday http://florida.marlins.mlb.com/schedule/so...le.jsp?c_id=fla Opponent Time Broadcast Probable Pitcher Opposing Pitcher Tue, 4/29 Dodgers 7:10p FSN-HD, MLB.TV Miller (1-2) Lowe (2-1) Wed, 4/30 Dodgers 7:10p FSN-HD, MLB.TV Olsen (3-0) Billingsley (0-4) Thu, 5/1 Dodgers 12:10p Sun Sports, MLB.TV Badenhop (0-2) Kuroda (1-2) Edit : I see that ESPN has Hopper and Olsen switched around,,,,Hopper throwing on Wed, and Olsen Thurs....Olsen has been following Badenhop in the rotation. But with the day off on Monday, it wouldn't be surprising(IMHO) to keep Olsen on his regular rest....and give Badenhop extra rest.... more info http://florida.marlins.mlb.com/news/probab...mp;ymd=20080429

i want Brewers to win we donot deserve to win after leaving that many on base we cannot find way to win Not that it matters in the grand scheme of the game.....but you disappoint me....I've been on various Marlins message boards since 1999....and I haven't been disappointed very often.
