Cubs' Non-Baseball Business is Booming

Submitted by Cubnut on

"...Elton John's going to help us win some ballgames."

So says Crane Kenney in explaining how the extra revenue the Cubs will realize from three Wrigley Field concerts this summer, including the Elton John/Billy Joel event in late July, will translate into additional payroll flexibility.

More from Kenney:

"The CBOE [seat] auction last year paid for Rich Harden. The 'Road to Wrigley' game sponsored our Asian scouting operation. That's the way, from the business end, we look at these things. All these elements really help our business move forward. My view is if you're a Cub fan, you should enjoy the concerts whether you're an Elton John fan or not."

The Trib's Dave van Dyck also reports that the Cubs will be opening a new, year-round, 7,000-square-foot sports bar at Addison & Sheffield in time for the home opener on April 13th. The Harry Caray's Restaurant group will run the place, which will replace the Friendly Confines Cafe and be accessible to fans whether or not they hold a ticket to the game.

"We need to compete with all the other bars and restaurants in town," Kenney said. 

Indeed. We can't have our baseball team not competing with all of the city's bars and restaurants.

\m/>.<\m/ It's getting late have you seen my mates Ma tell me when the boys get here It's seven o'clock and I want to rock Want to get a belly full of beer My old man's drunker than a barrel full of monkeys And my old lady she don't care My sister looks cute in her braces and boots A handful of grease in her hair Don't give us none of your aggravation We had it with your discipline Saturday night's alright for fighting Get a little action in Get about as oiled as a diesel train Gonna set this dance alight `Cause Saturday night's the night I like Saturday night's alright alright alright Well they're packed pretty tight in here tonight I'm looking for a dolly who'll see me right I may use a little muscle to get what I need I may sink a little drink and shout out "She's with me!" A couple of the sound that I really like Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike I'm a juvenile product of the working class Whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass

US loses 10-6. Guthrie gave up 6 in the 2nd inning. US was able to cut it to 7-6, but then LaTroy gave up a 3 run bomb. Sounds about right. Still haven't figured out who the US will play in the semis. They still have to sort out the seeding between the Koreans & Japan/Cuba.

Thanks for the replies in the previous thread about tickets - i will try and upgrade my tickets from ebay or stubhub. one quickie, if the tickets are to be printed at home, and they forward the email onto me, what is to stop them selling the seats again and forwarding on the same email to someone else??? sorry never used stubhub, and print at home tickets have only just caught on over here - i especially like it when they charge the same amount as if they have to post to you...

"forward the email onto me, what is to stop them selling the seats again and forwarding on the same email to someone else???" You just have to rely on their honesty. If you get to the game and they don't work ebay has a process to get a refund (but that's a pain in the ass). That's why I always go with hard tickets. I don't mess with the print at home tickets. Stubhub I believe only sends hard tickets, and their prices aren't too bad. You can just get more of a deal on ebay I think if you catch the right auction. But I'd only bid on auctions that have tickets in hand, or are hard tickets.

Since Stubhub is affiliated with MLB, they have an eDelivery option which allows the seller to enter the bar code of the tickets. Stubhub then contacts the Cubs which invalidates that bar code and issues tickets with new bar codes to you. At least this is how I understand how it works. This wouldn't apply to eBay.

Just noticed: The Houston Astros are emphasizing speed and "manufacturing" runs this spring. They lead the major leagues in triples with 11 and have stolen 18 bases while being caught only once. They also have a total of (1) win which must be some kind of record.

Manufacturing in this country is not in a good position right now. Neither are the Astros.

I wonder if this new sports bar is going to charge $6 for an Old Style so you really feel like you're at the game? Also, I kind of like their Fund Accounting approach. I'd like my bar tabs at this new Wrigley Field sports bar to go towards a top flight free agent starting pitcher next year.

    Thought it might have been David Peralta given the open 40 man spot and how PCA has played so far.

    I hope they keep Mozeliak a few more years. Marmol too!

    wow, counsell coming with the early lineup.  rarity.

    PCA called up.

    welp...

    bellinger...fractured rib.

    a not-very-ready PCA will probably be called up when it would be much better for him to be in AAA getting regular ABs.

    i have no hard data, but i'm seeing the same thing.

    there used to be some parks where that was rampant (colorado during the todd helton days comes to mind), but i'm seeing it all over the place the past couple seasons.

    I’ll spare the details which I’ve stated before but, in short, the Cardinals have lost their sight of their successful identity and strategy over last several dominant decades. From the beginning of the season I saw the Cardinals being in last place or near it again this year, and my prediction is that Mozeliak will be gone after the end of the season.

  • Bill (view)

    I would have kept Cooper rather than Wisdom, but at least I can understand why they did it.  In a team that lacks dominant power hitters, Wisdom can be a dominant power hitter, at least in streaks.  I suppose that there is always the possibility that the streaks longer in both duration and frequency.  I will be content if they essentially make a 100 % DH commitment to Mervis against righties and Wisdom against lefties.  When a regular needs rest, give them total rest, rather than a DH rest.  Do this for at least 2 months, and then re-evaluate at that point.

    This is Cubs adjacent but…


    Jordan Walker just was optioned by the deadbirds. For all the talk of the Cardinals development machine, they’ve really missed on a lot of can’t miss superstars lately. Walker has struggled. Gorman has been okay. They’re already trying to push Carlson out the door. Their pitching system has been so bad they had to go out and sign basically a full rotation over the last two offseasons.

    They’ve still developed a few of those pesky solid players, like Donovan, Edman, and Nootbaar. Their two best prospect to MLB players have been Adolis and Arozarena, neither of which is a cardinal.

    I hope they never figure it out again. Cardinal failure brings me such joy.
