A `lousy' trade for Montreal fans
Every major league city is feeling
the pinch of baseball's strike but if
any community has cornered the
market of grief, it's Montreal.
Not only has the strike halted the
best Expo season in.a dozen but it's
resurrected questions about the
team's, viability in Montreal. It's
cost 30 full-time and 1,900 part-
time workers their jobs and now,
adding insult to injury, there's an
election in the province and Mar-
quis Grissom has. stopped running.
There's nothing to distract the
weary populace.
Well, there is something, if they
choose to tune in Expo broadcasters
Dave Van Horne and Ken Singleton .
are describing Ottawa Lynx games
until the Triple A farm team's
season is finished. And when the
game is over, the lengthy post -game
radio show is being handled by
Expos PR man Richard Griffin.
"The first night I was on the. air
from 10:15 till midnight and had
one call," chuckled Griffin, dispel-
ling the myth that major league fans
immediately turn to the minors for
their baseball fix. And the oc-
casional fan who does phone wants
to talk about the prospects of the .
big -league season, not about the
math does not compute for Brochu,
and he'll fight any deal that doesn't
control it..
The players don't seem quite as
pessimistic. The Expos are a young
team (Randy Milligan and Jeff
Fassaro are the only two over 30)
and they think they'll be together
for another run at the top next year.
They're obviously not using Claude
Brochu's accountant.
Even the most miserable bean
counter might have felt bright about
this season in Montreal. From the
end of June, when school got out
and the NHL playoffs finally ended,
up until the strike, Montreal was
drawing an average of 32,000 fans game show to complain.
and projected a total of 2.2 million
for the year. With that kind of
attendance, they thought they could
break even and were thrilled that
fans were paying attention to their
plight. '
"People who remember the late
70s and early 80s were saying they
were having more fun at the
ballpark this year than ever before,"
said Griffin before he prepared for
another lonely night of Lynx broad-
casting.
But the fun has set at the Big 0
and Montreal fans face a fall..
without a pennant race but with an
election. That's such a lousy trade,
you'd think they'd phone the post-
4-H
Ex Pos' minor-league prospects.

. gue P pects.
"The feeling I get from, the callers
is that the owners should give into
the players immediately, just
because we're in the playoffs."
That won't wash in the team's
front office, where president Claude
.Brochu is a hard-line, small -market
spokesman.
Brochu feels that without revenue
sharing and a salary cap, the Expos
are doomed. He hears people use
them as an example of a team that
can win with a small budget but
argues the budget is only small for
a year. The Expos had a $14 mil
hon payroll last year. It's $18 mil-
lion this year and would soar to $35
million next year if allowed. That
