That's kind of my problem with the article and the comparison between Beloit and West Virginia. The author talks about why the Brewers left Beloit, because of poor facilities and low attendance, that's all fine and true....but it's not exactly like West Virginia suffers from any problems with either attendance or facilities. In fact, the T-Rats draw roughly 3,000 fans a game (last time I looked). With the weather poor at the start of the season, I imagine the average will go up and they will finish with between 3,500-4,000 per game. However, West Virginia averages just under 4,000 (if I remember), and their averages are also sure to go up with summer upon us. Obviously, I'd love to see the Brewers have a presence somewhere, anywhere in the Midwest League again...but I don't see how talking about why the Brewers left Beloit applies here, since West Virginia is doing just fine and dandy. If currently West Virginia resembled the Beloit situation ala 2003-ish, then I could see why the Brewers might be inclined to move. Right now, I just sadly don't see it happening. That said, do big league teams even care about the attendance numbers of their affiliates? I mean, the big league club doesn't see any of that gate money, do they? I would imagine they are much more concerned with the current facilities, and attendance is just an afterthought.
