They will never give up on Miami. It was much worse one time before, attendance dropped to around 2500 a game.
The lousy attendance reflects lousy play. The new ownership sold off all the talent or at least most and there was near zero in the Minors. I have no sympathy for the fans, they aren't fanatics at all.
I have no idea of how many seats were sold via season ticket holders. They had fewer than 9K in attendance. which does not mean anything if they had say 35,000 season ticket holders.
Atlanta did the same thing-bargained away their talent and then tried to sell Triple A ball-it did not work and Atlanta suffered through 3 years of miserable play. I personally do not believe Atlanta will end this year with an above 500 win/loss record. Right now, they are killing opposition provided the opposition does not fight back too much.
We shall see......
