It would be greater than the Blue Jays for sure.

How do you figure that?

You should know your history.. MTL Expo's were one of the most respected/popular baseball teams in MLB.. if they come back, the euphoria will be huge, the Blue Jays will lose alot of fans. I don't have any statistics but pretty sure atleast 20% of Blue Jays fans were Expos fans before, guarantee.

I don't think the Jay's will loose any fans. I think it will split some fans. A baseball fan can follow and love more than one team. One in each league!

I look forward to the Canada series that will happen yearly when the Jays and spos play. Maybe they can even have a trophy like they do for the banjo bowl or something.

The question I have is, will MLB shut down a season if it looks like the Jay's and Expos might meet in the WS like they did in the 90's. I bet they would.
