My take on "significant" ticket selling ... it is based "primarily" on *PERCEPTION* of what is coming tomorrow rather than what happened last month.
And if so, the Mariners' horrific attendance would reflect the fanbase's loss of hope.
One thing the M's can't afford is another season flushed down the drain early. IMHO the fan base here is just not sophisticated enough to come to the park because Taijuan Walker is looking good in the low minors...
The M's brass needs some on-field results ASAP -- their opinion, not mine, as reflected by the Cust, Pineda, etc decisions...
