If you add up all the revenue sources. The Twins will fall smack dab in the middle. Don't argue this... Just trust me... This one time. Everything else I type on this site you can question and should question. On this issue we are smack dab mid pack. There are about 10 mid pack like teams in the same boat as the Twins.

Most importantly... Think of it this way. Relying On ticket sales and hot dogs and corporate box packages and merchandising is about as fickle an income source as you can find.

The stadium is wonderful... It brought us out of Kansas City Land. It does what it's designed to do... Produce revenue. The stadium brought us from near the bottom to mid pack.

In the end.. The players still have to execute and make plays in the field.

The Twins are 14th in franchise value and 13th in Team revenue.

Below are the 30 Teams by the numbers.
