Yes, winning is key. But, the interesting thing is having a team that continually sells out every game in three years and has a a three year winning percentage of .600+ and the market size is STILL below average.

I'd be willing to bet that if your team is selling out every game and playing .600 ball over three seasons that your fan loyality has got to be good by now. But also in the real world as much as we all would like to believe city markets don't revolve around baseball alone.

Yes, in addition to winning there is a random element involved. Some teams may find it easier to increase market size and fan loyalty than others.
