Kansas City Royals Ranked Third-Least Valuable In MLB

As we slouch toward opening day . . . We wanted to share a valuable perspective to keep in mind when we talk about so much cash and attention geared toward building the team a new home . . .

KANSAS CITY ROYALS VALUED AT MEASLY 1.3 BILLION DOLLARS!!!

Sure, that's more cash than most of us have in the cushions of our couch BUT far less than the "economic impact" promised from politicos offering EPIC cash deals in both Missouri & Kansas.

Even worse . . . This number kinda makes Mayor Q's billion dollar offer look a bit silly . . . Sillier. 

With credit to AWESOME TKC READERS . . . Here's the best summary we wanted to share . . . 

"The franchise is 28th out of 30 clubs in value.

"The Royals are valued at $1.3 billion, according to the latest estimates by Forbes magazine, but that ranks them as the third-least valuable franchise according to their metrics. Only the Marlins and Rays rank below the Royals in valuation, with the Yankees topping the list at $8.2 billion."
