Fenway is only 34m seats. Its a 102 year old dump but has on average one of the highest ticket prices in MLB. NESN is where the Red Sox make all the money. You do not make a lot of money off the fans in the upper deck of the stadium.

They should build this place with a roof that can open and close depending on the weather. Vegas is a tourism city. I could see flying there for a weekend series. Taking in a couple games on a weekend.

Keep in mind that stadiums like Tampa make more money when the Yankees or Red Sox are in town playing the Rays. Especially early in the season and in September IF their respective team is making a run.

I have been to Fenway about 6 times. Back then the bleachers were $2. !994 or so. I always bought and ate an Italian sausage sandwich outside before entering Fenway. Lots of fennel in those sausages. There were always 6-10 sausage sandwich vendors outside.

Retractable is the way to go. There are plenty of cool and even cold months in Las Vegas. But during the summer you need the roof up and the A/C on. You are right about baseball being a solid part of the Vegas entertainment mix. Moving there is a no-brainer. Baseball has 80 home games. Football just has 9 or 10. So lots of Pro Baseball games for the tourists and the natives.
