I doubt that SLC could support another major franchise. Everybody points to the Jazz as a major franchise that not only survived but thrived in a small market but the fact of the matter is that there is only so much money to go around. Places like LA, Miami, Dallas, who have large population bases and significant luxury spending are able to support multiple major franchises. The Salt Lake area could not. And it could potentialy hurt the Jazz.
Its doubtful that there would be good enough attendance for a mlb team there to survive - especialy with all of the day games that would have to be played by the team.
