Craig at FishStripes questions the assertion that ticket sales are up for every team. It's tough to believe more people are buying tickets for Marlins games this season. Maybe fans didn't like Cabrera and Willis? That's tough to believe. Maybe advance sales were so slow last year, they had no place to go but up? Maybe Mets fans, faced with a huge price increase, find it cheaper to fly to Miami, buy a front row seat, and fly back to watch the Mets.

I will be very surprised if the Marlins attendance is up over last season.
