"The NFL and NBA dominate much of the top 75 most valuable American sports franchises. Outside of the Yankees and Dodgers, those two leagues own every valuation in the top 30. When we get to the most expensive MLB franchises, the New York Yankees come up No. 1, ranking 9th overall at $8.39 Billion. The Dodgers are behind them at $7.73 Billion in 14th, and the Red Sox at $6.03 Billion in 33rd."
"They rank 86th among 154 American sports franchises by cost. The team is valued at $2.25 billion, making it the 15th most valuable MLB team. As per Statista, the DMV (DC-Maryland-Virginia) area is the 7th largest metro area in the United States. Despite being in a large metro and the sole MLB team to a large piece of its pie, the Nationals should be higher on this list."
Sportico released updated valuations for all 154 teams across the five major U.S. leagues. League-average valuations show the NFL highest at about $7.13 billion, the NBA at $5.51 billion, and MLB at $2.82 billion. The NFL and NBA occupy almost all top-30 franchise valuations, with only the Yankees and Dodgers representing MLB there. The New York Yankees rank 9th at $8.39 billion, Dodgers 14th at $7.73 billion, and Red Sox 33rd at $6.03 billion. The Washington Nationals are valued at $2.25 billion, placing 86th overall and 15th among MLB teams, underperforming relative to the DMV market size.
