Burn your bridges with Oakland without a location in Vegas brehs

Wow, that's going to be an extremely small stadium even by MLB standards.

 

[Easy-E]

Damn, this is messed up for Oakland

I was just there (Thanksgiving) talking to my cousin about the teams leaving

30k seats is tiny for a baseball stadium.

 

[Spidey Man]

I work on the strip. I hate that location, but at least I won't have to go to Phoenix or LA to watch the Mets

 

[King Poetic]

Letting bob melvin go was a mistake

John Fisher is a horrible owner

And my goodness, the As are pitiful all around

rather have John Fisher sell and move the As somewhere like Sacramento..especially if u only having a 30,000 seat stadium

I really don't picture Las Vegas and Baseball . The whole deal sucks for Oakland Baseball fans, when this whole thing could have been resolved with I dunno...cleaning house and starting over with the team . I'm getting Expos flashbacks

The A's are in the American League

Probably gonna price the seats for tourists.

Balanced scheduling means every team plays every other team now. They will alternate home and away by year for most interleague matchups.

shyt sounds like a low budget stadium already. I hate that no one gave full reinvestment into the coliseum site a chance. Everyone wants to shoehorn all business and entertainment into one part of Oakland and never invest in the east. fukk em again

Raiders wanted to build a stadium at the Coliseum site, but the A's re-upped their lease killing that idea.
