The Dodgers will meet or beat their season-ticket sales from 2008 even if they do not sign Ramirez, but the outfielder could mean a huge increase in sales.
"We've had plenty of 'Hope you sign Manny' but not 'You won't see a penny from me if you don't,' " Dodgers' C.O. Dennis Mannion said.
Mannion believes the Dodgers probably could sell another 2,000 season seats if they do re-sign Manny.
At the average ticket price of $29.66, plus the roughly $17 that each fan spends on food, drink and parking, those additional 2,000 seats would translate into about $7.5 million in gross revenue for the team.
