My 2018 Market Sizes

Each year I compile a list of what I feel reflects the actual MLB in terms of markets for OOTP.

One thing to realize is that Market Size in OOTP is a fairly "loose term". It doesn't reflect actual market size as much as it does "media money" and therefore marketability. Consequently I base my list off of the annual Forbes MLB team valuations list.

https://www.forbes.com/mlb-valuations/list/#tabverall


Some of the list I just can't do such as San Diego, Pittsburgh and the Orioles. The avg team income must be right around $170M however, so I have to take some creative liberties so things work out.

For instance, in my list, I'd like to see the Pirates as a 4, but it works out to exactly to 170M with the 2018 MLB set this way.

I am curious as to what others think.





10 Yankees

9 Dodgers, Red Sox, Cubs, Giants

8 mets, Angels, Phillies, Rangers, Nats

7 Braves, Astros, Cards, Jays

6 Tigers, D-Backs, Twins, Mariners

5 Orioles, Pirates, White Sox, Rockies

4 Indians, Padres, Brewers

3 Rays, Reds, Marlins, Royals, Athletics


For all intents and purposes, a "6" is average on this list.

For what it's worth, here's how the 2012-16 CBA ranked the market size of each MLB team:

1 - NYA, NYN
3 - LAN, ANA
5 - CHN, CHA
7 - SFN, OAK
9 - TOR, PHI, BOS
12 - WAS
13 - ATL, TEX
15 - HOU
16 - SEA
17 - DET
18 - ARI
19 - MIN
20 - BAL
21 - COL
22 - SDN
23 - MIA
24 - TBA
25 - CLE
26 - SLN
27 - KCA
28 - CIN, PIT
30 - MIL

In the 2017-2021 CBA, in addition to a market ranking, a market score was also provided. Some clubs changed rank between the two agreements. The figure in parentheses is the given market score (which is used in the revenue sharing calculations.)

1 - NYA, NYN (235)
3 - LAN, ANA (178)
5 - CHN, CHA (124)
7 - TOR (119)
8 - WAS (113)
9 - PHI (111)
10 - OAK, SFN (108)
12 - BOS, TEX (101)
14 - ATL (96)
15 - HOU (93)
16 - SEA (81)
17 - MIN (76)
18 - DET (74)
19 - ATL,TBA (72)
21 - BAL, COL (70)
23 - MIA (69)
24 - CLE (64)
25 - SDN (60)
26 - SLN (57)
27 - PIT (56)
28 - KCA (53)
29 - MIL (52)
30 - CIN (51)
