"Glass is one of the wealthier owners in professional sports but he is reluctant to go on record stating his net worth"

Payroll has always been about how much the owner has and willing to spend, the TV deals were just gravy.

I believe Glass could make KC top 3 in payroll, if he wanted, but I am positive he will never spend as foolishly as the Top 5 do.
This is literally one of the stupidest things you have ever posted.

Forbes -

Major League Baseball’s richest owner is Ted Lerner, who made his billions in real estate. Lerner is worth $5.5 billion, up 22%, and ranks No. 86 overall. Seven other MLB owners made the 400, including Detroit Tigers’ owners Michael and Marian Ilitch ($5.4 billion), who also own the NHL’s Detroit Red Wings, San Francisco Giants managing partner Charles Johnson ($5.3 billion) and Ray Davis ($3 billion) of the Texas Rangers.
Baseball includes two owners, who are returnees to Forbes 400 this year in Boston Red Sox boss John Henry ($2.2 billion), who last appeared in the 400s in 2013, and Los Angeles Angels owner Arturo Moreno ($1.8 billion), who made the cut in 2012.

Illitch was ranked 12th richest owner in all of sports, 3rd richest in baseball.

like we have seen, Glass has raised payroll 5 years in a row, TV deal didn't play into it at all, attendance didn't matter as well. Tigers TV deal doesn't do anything for their payroll either.

Its about the money the owners have.

his estimated net worth is 1.8 billion you fucking clown... Ilitch could buy him and make him is personal back scratcher if he wanted.

according to YOU, Glass is $1.8 billion, which everyone else says he doesn't go public with his wealth, would put him, 5th richest owner in MLB.

wheither or not he is 5th, 10th....whatever, the point is Glass can afford whatever payroll he wants. Doesn't matter if Illitch is 20 times richer.

Tigers TV deal is double what the Royals make.. Tigers total revenue was 30 mil more... and that doesn't count the money that Ilitch makes off the food sold at the stadium because he owns the food distributor that provides the actual ingredients to the concessions stands.
