E is the best among the given choices.

A) viewed to be a potential threat to revenue because Major League clubs rented their ballparks when they traveled to Negro League teams................
"Viewed as" is the correct idiom. Ballparks are being rented to Negro League Teams. So, a change in meaning.

B) viewed to be potentially threatening since Major League clubs rented their ballparks when they traveled to Negro League teams...................Same as A. Also, Revenue threat to revenue part is not there.

C) viewed as potentially threatening to revenue since Major League clubs rented their ballparks when they traveled to Negro League teams.......................Potentially threatening to revenue is unnecessary. Traveled to Negro League Teams is not conveying the intended meaning.

D) viewed as a potentially threatening situation to revenue, for many Major League clubs rented their ballparks to Negro League teams when they traveled........................."Potentially threatening situation to revenue" is unnecessary. "They" refers to Negro League teams.

E) viewed as a potential threat to revenue because many Major League clubs rented their ballparks to Negro League teams when they traveled. .............No error.
