MLB Fans Have Question For Taylor Swift After Travis Kelce Buys Stake In Guardians

Cleveland Guardians fans should expect to see Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift at plenty of games over the next few years.

It was announced on Wednesday that Kelce is joining the Guardians' ownership group. The Ohio native made this news official just days after he was seen sitting courtside with Swift at the Eastern Conference Finals.

"I have so much love for this city," Kelce told ESPN. "I say it all the time: I'm just a kid from the Heights living the dream. I credit every good thing in my life to Cleveland and being raised here with the values and the people and the work ethic. Cleveland Heights is such a diverse and dynamic place. Every friend, neighbor, teacher and teammate -- they all made me the man I am today. It just fueled such a deep appreciation for life and community and service. That mentality of Cleveland against the world runs deep.

"I've been lucky enough to have a front-row seat to good ownership in my career, and I know the best teams prioritize culture. Everyone is there to play their role, and right now, I'm here to observe and learn and really to support the team and the city when and where I can."

Will Taylor Swift help out the Guardians?

Once it was confirmed that Kelce is joining the Guardians' ownership group, the MLB community asked if Swift will help chip in when it comes to the team's finances.

"I thought it was pretty sane to think it's the year 2030, (Taylor Swift) is making $500 million on another tour, how much can they break off for Guardians payroll," Ken Carman of 92.3 The Fan said.

"This makes me happier than anyone can understand," a Guardians fan wrote on social media. "My baseball team has Taylor Swift money."

"Is this Taylor's wedding present to Travis?" another fan asked.
