In order to realize the value you're talking about, they simply have to assure (by contract or otherwise) other property owners that might have bolted, that Fenway is here to stay. Hell, it would be better if they let them leave and bought their real estate as well. And it's not like Fenway won't be sold out if they finish in 3rd place. Just look at last year.

If anyone cares, Henry & Co. invested in the surrounding property before they bought the team.
