Montreal Baseball Club Inc.
 PROFILE
For the past decade the Montreal Expos have been exposing their best players to the rest of the league. Mocked as a major league farm team, the Expos drew an abysmally low 926,272 fans in 2000 (28th in MLB). They have a reputation for cultivating great talent the team can't afford to keep, then selling off the best players to other teams. But new majority owner Jeffrey Loria (a New York art dealer) has opened his wallet, promising to increase the team's payroll by 50% and step up plans for a new $200 million facility to replace aging Olympic Stadium. The Expos, with only one playoff appearance in their 32-year history, joined the league as an expansion team (and the first Canadian team) in 1969.
