What's Wrong With Baseball in Miami?

"Girardi takes over a Marlins team facing a likely roster shake-up. Spending cuts are possible after Loria approved a franchise-record $60 million payroll this season and was rewarded with a late-season meltdown, the second-lowest attendance in the National League and a stalemate in his bid for a new ballpark."

One of these days, someone is going to explain to me why Miami, with its Cuban and Central American populations, has the second lowest attendance in the National League. This isn't just a one time phenomenon. They have struggled with attendance from the start.
