lol at houston being a small market
This is baseball...

If it's not a New York team, Chicago team, Boston, or LA then you're a small market team. Actually.. put St Louis in there as well because they've been a winning org long enough to have a big fan base across the US.

Houston has a population of 2.3 million people

the angels are considered a big club and their population is only 351,000

the population in the entire orange county is only 3 million

houston might only be small compared only to the dodgers.

I'm not arguing geography or population density.

Just fan base.

Why does McCann bother dropping signs? Just walk to the mound after every pitch. Annoying.

The Jays have an enormous fan base. 3 million population in Toronto and millions more country wide. Every 10th person here is wearing a Jays hat. I live on the opposite side of the country.

That's true. The Blue Jays always have a solid crowd even in bad seasons. Probably helps that the Expos are gone so there's a little extra nationalism thrown in on top.

Doesn't that stadium hold like 50,000 people too?
iirc they added more seats during the magic Johnson remodel but it used to be smaller than angel stadium if anaheim ducks tickets went for 3000 during the 2007 title run I can only imagine how high these dodger tickets sold for.
