Microeconomics is loaded with instances in which one fact is changed, typically one additional unit of a particular input is added and the change in output or inocme measured, i.e. marginal product and marginal revenue.
Unfortunately, in the real world it is virtually impossible to change just one unit (add or substract) of a particular input.
If my memory serves, the change in output is the first derivative of the production function.
In the real world, one can estimate the difference in deaths from playing a season versus not playing it, but that analysis is going to be rife with assumptions, and the result will be little more than a guess.
