right!? in a discussion with coworkers i had this to say earlier this morning: It is kind of funny the dichotomy of using very high tech hidden camera in the CF wall to view the catchers signs but then the basic Neanderthal relay of the sign to the batter by banging on a metal garbage can.

i cant speak for certain but i would bet the farm that JH owns every red sox merch shop within 10 blocks of fenway park. as for the player...i came across something that said only if it has both the # and the name on the jersey is there royalty compensation. it is interesting trying to research this. not much hard data / facts out there. the owners/clubs keep tight lid on this stuff.
-
also, it seems teams can have their own merchandise for sale that isn't MLB officially licesnsed which would circumvent the sharing. Probably most of the stuff sold in the yawkey way shops falls under this category. wally stuff, green monstah shirts, fenway stuff, etc.
-
yeah. i also found this: In general, MLB merchandise sales have remained around $3 billion per year over the past ten years. Scott Sillcox from the Licensed Sports Blog suggests that MLB receives a royalty payment of 12% of the $3.4B in sales or roughly $400 Million that is split equally between all teams. In addition, MLB receives an unknown amount of licensing revenue from other sources.

Among measures that are typically part of revenue sharing are splitting national television rights, pooling of merchandising revenues, and in the case of Major League Baseball, developing and pooling revenues from the internet via mlb.com. Revenue sharing can also include some redistributive measures such as a luxury tax, or even forcing teams to pay a portion of their local television revenues into a common pool (something which has been contemplated but never implemented in MLB). The common thread is that these measures treat richer and poorer teams on an equal footing, or in the case of redistributive measures, take some of the excess revenues of richer teams and provide these to less-favored teams.

did the sox get fined for the pedroia iphone debacle?

BR In Major League Baseball, 48% of local revenues are subject to revenue sharing and are distributed equally among all 30 teams, with each team receiving 3.3% of the total sum generated. As a result, in 2018, each team received $118 million from this pot. Teams alsoreceive a share of national revenues, which were estimated to be $91 million per team, also in 2018.

punch & judy DH. no thanks. again, the fact that the manager of the Red Sox has not had JD take some reps at 1b for the past 2 years - especially last spring - is negligence. people can argue this all they want but every year we need someone that wasn't in the original "plan" to play games at 1b. why not have a guy already on the payroll that has gone on record he likes playing in the field take reps at the position during ST???? negligence. -
52% to the Red Sox 48% to revenue sharing

this is slasher approved

yes bell, but you didn't put a redsox coach in the thread title like the non trolling jacksonianmarch did.....

i would guess a player like betts that sells a ton of #50 merch would be profitable for an owner into the $3-$400MM range. the flipside is that if you invest that amount of $$ into 1 player that prevents signing other players that could potentially bring us parades (see: pitchers). many on here for years have been stating the JH doesnt care about budgets and that player payroll doesnt matter. clearly it does. 2020 will be the 2nd time during his ownership that this has been shown. we are finally getting out from the panda/hram contracts but are still saddled with price/sale. do we want to have $345/10 on the books for the next decade for 1 player?

actually the "ultimate of cheating" would be the 2 game 7 2003 ALCS homeruns that giambi hit that barely cleared the wall.....

if he can't play 2b he is pretty much useless. i dont think we will be seeing the "lazer show" on offense from him anymore so not thrilled about the prospect of a punch & judy DH.... -
Mike Trout is the greatest player to ever put on a uniform. sorry but Betts doesnt get to be compared to him yet. or probably ever.

under. shoebox bet. -
correct.

of course. who doesn't?
-
i wasnt talking about any of those people tho?
-
if i found a teammate that publicly called him out i would lose respect for that snitch too. players code is a real thing. i am just going by years of watching him pitch both for us and against us. there is not 1 particular instance i was referring to.

that article just reminded me of another reason i dislike pedroia....

put an asterisk next to that WS* title.....
