Wins/Payroll/Average Attendance by season
2024 - 74/$234,516,547/33,101
2023 - 89/$223,560,545/37,307
2022 - 92/$192,937,580/32,763
2021 - 91/$172,521,891/10,119*
4,200 less fans in the park per game from 2023 to 2024 - while payroll goes up and wins go down. That is what I would be most worried about if I was Shapiro. I would imagine most at Rogers couldn't care less about wins/losses, but you start cutting into profits with drop in attendance, you now have their attention.
I agree - he is going to have to calm this trend, and relieving Atkins of his job, getting Vlad (and/or Bo) signed to a long term extension should be Shapiro's 2 priorities this off season.
