I don't blame Rogers as I believe they are operating the team in a responsible manner.
More than that if this is the thing you are frustrated with - it isn't going to change! You are going to be bashing your head against the wall.
You are correct it isn't going to change under Rogers. Because the execs need to ensure they hit their profit targets to get their full compensation, and made a terrible investment in hockey (at least in 2016 with all Canadian teams missing playoffs)

Again, this isn't Rogers is setting an operating budget to match their baseball revenues. They are pocketing a massive amount of cash in 2016.

I guess we can wait until their financials come out in a few months, but even then they mix sports revenue into 1 bucket (Plus increased add revenue for Jays games, etc) so it's difficult to know exactly where the $$ comes from/how much Jays actually bring in. And they don't disguise it because they are operating the Jays on a budget that matches their revenue.
