My question was "I wonder how 2026 ticket sales are going?"
Ticket sales are as important as a rebuild. The sooner the "Big fireworks begin" the better the ticket sales will be. And I always thought it was about ticket sales at this time of the year. Otherwise, attendance will be worse in 2026 than it was 2025.
I hope we don't become the "St. Louis Browns" all over again. Which by the was owned by Bill DeWitt.

Not complaining. Just saying it cost them $20 million to correct another Mo blunder. Again, I wonder how 2026 ticket sales are going.ecleme22 wrote: ↑25 Nov 2025 22:40 pmYes.

One hell of a $20 mill gamble for a pitcher who will be 26 in a couple of weeks with a 2 - 5 career record and another who hasn't pitched above class A baseball. I guess we can hope.ecleme22 wrote: ↑26 Nov 2025 09:52 amYeah, you’re right in a sense.OldRed wrote: ↑26 Nov 2025 07:04 amNot complaining.
