No, that’s not really the proper stylization of the new “Marlins Park” name. This is: loanDepot park. Almost too gimmicky to be believed.
The early vibe I’m getting from Marlins fans is a cocktail of eyerolls, satisfaction—nearly $10 million of extra annual revenue for the franchise!—and stubbornness to acknowledge the new reality. Both parties already commented to Bloomberg about the naming rights deal, though the big reveal is being saved for 10 a.m. ET today.
Between this and the much-improved terms of their local television situation, the Marlins no longer have excuses for pinching pennies in the pursuit of building a championship contender.
