Portland would be cool but it likely won't happen. Mariners would block any move to Portland or Vancouver.

Vegas probably.
I don't know...I think Seattle might benefit from a regional rivalry like that. And I think they have the population to support two teams.

I am all for them having a new stadium if they need or want it. I am not all for tax money going to new stadiums.
.......... and that's entirely up to the taxpayers.

Likewise, moving or staying is entirely up to the owners.

Why don't they, er, renovate it themselves? I think we've long since passed the point where our tax money should be going to billionaires to finance their private businesses.

Even if they move they need to stay in the AL West so Montreal and Nashville are not the best geographically; unless you are also going to re-align divisions again.

So does Medford OR. We'd fill up Harry&David Field for you Athletics - all 2,178 seats and the lawn most nights I'd bet!
