Posted October 17, 200321 yr http://cagle.slate.msn.com/news/BaseballPl...layoffs03/5.asp Check out the picture on the webpage about the Marlins fans. :unsure : Will it be true?
October 17, 200321 yr that cartoon was in yesterdays herald. i hope its not true although i dont belive we're going to be packing in 40,000 a night but i think attendace will improve, people are in love with this team right now.
October 17, 200321 yr all i can say, is that the attendance will improve yet again next year If you guys keep this team together, and can't draw 2 million fans next year, I won't understand what everybody in south florida is doing.
October 17, 200321 yr Guarenteed that there will be more than 6 or 7,000 there a night. Average? I'm looking closer to averaging 20,000 people a night there next year. Is it a stretch? Yeah probably, but considering there won't be any major fire sales and if management can bring in good talent to replace those that are lost, this will be a very good baseball team again next year!
October 18, 200321 yr all i can say, is that the attendance will improve yet again next year Really going out on a limb there, aren't ya?
October 18, 200321 yr I would guess we'll average closer to 30,000 if the main core of the team stays put. Obviously there will be some tinkering...there always is. Look at the Braves. They've managed to win 12 straight division titles, each year with new players thrown into the mix. (Although with only one WS championship to show for it... :lol )
October 18, 200321 yr If we can say let only Lee and Enc Leave and somehow Loria wants to spend 80 mil. The Team will sell 30k+ a game.
October 18, 200321 yr If we don't draw 20-25K a night next year, there is something wrong with south Florida.
October 18, 200321 yr after a world series campaign and with the core returning.... you would have to think that anything less than an average of 25K would be a disappointment.
October 18, 200321 yr If next years opening day isn't a capacity crowd (65K), I'm going to scream. The Marlins don't like to open up those seats unless absolutely needed. you could see a 45,000 person crowd, but not the full 67,000.
October 18, 200321 yr after a world series campaign and with the core returning.... you would have to think that anything less than an average of 25K would be a disappointment. That's why I say minimum two million, that would be around 24,600 per game.
October 18, 200321 yr Dropping Enc, Lee, one of UU/Looper, and Pudge will allow us to sign everyone we need and maybe bring in a free agent (vlad!?) :lol

The Marlins don't like to open up those seats unless absolutely needed. you could see a 45,000 person crowd, but not the full 67,000. I'm sure Jeffrey Loria will have absolutely no problem opening up those seats. More cash. If the fans came and wanted to sit up there, and you don't sell them the tickets because you don't like to, then you're crazy.
October 18, 200321 yr didnt we avg around 20,000 during the '98 season with that horrible team? i think if we bring back the core of the team we could surely avg. 25,000.
