It's going to be very difficult for the Marlins to bring their fan base back. It's just a unique situation from the standpoint of there aren't too many times that a team wins two championships in such a short period of time (seven years) and yet they gut their roster and threaten to move.

If you're going to see a benefit from the stadium, it's going to come from Ballpark Village.

There are always going to be people who have issues with the public outlay of money for something of this nature, but it's hard to see how this is going to hurt Charlotte.
