According to Forbes, that number would be a little more than 5. That’s right, it would take a little over 5 Tampa franchises to equal how much the Yankees are worth (256 mil to 1.3 bil). Ridiculous? Definitely. The White Sox are in the middle of that list, worth about 443 million. Despite the bad season last year, the Sox still played to 82% capacity at The Cell and the franchise’s value grew 16% from last year. Not too bad, I’d say.
