I live near Washington, so I want to adopt them as my team to help baseball overall. But its futility.
The ticket you bought definitely change a lot. It counts as revenue, and the team is going to determine its spending depending revenue projections.

More people interested in the tickets would encourage the team to spend more, and hopefully building better teams. That in turn could get more people interested in the tickets. It's how things should work.
