NSan Diego, California

oldtimefamilybaseball:

Everyone else in LA is broke, so it would make sense that the Dodgers are too. Frank McCourt does have a few ideas to help make ends meet, however:

  • Start only six players per game with forced vacation time for bench players.
  • Cut bullpen, make starters really earntheir paychecks. 
  • Turn off the stadium lights between innings.
  • Charge fans different prices depending on when they enter. A fan coming in the first inning will be charged more than the vast majority who enter around the third. 
  • Auction off starting shortstop position to the highest bidder.

I’d turn the 3rd point around on the Dodgers: charge people more who enter after the first pitch and a premium to leave before the last out of the 9th inning.

Then again, I’m a Padres fan.
