The fact that multiple sports journalists & anchors are coming out & shitting on John Fisher, MLB, & the owners just goes to show how crazy this potential relocation is. Why do I get the feeling that this is all drama & somehow someone will save the A’s & keep them in Oakland?

The issue is that they are going to take out the natural grass and put in artificial turf. The temp on turf gets 30+ degrees hotter than the surface temperature. If it’s 110 degrees, the turf could met shoes and burn players if they dive. Not gonna fly for big leaguers.

Why does SB 1 say the A’s or “another team” when trying to secure a stadium in LV? Do they not completely believe the A’s will work out? @EduOverStadiums @AlexMarksNV

Is that a risk they’d be willing to take? It just seems like a stadium ground breaking would be delayed even further, right?

Maybe keep the motives of your sources in mind next time and why they want to look good to Manfred and ilk.

Tony Clark is literally admitting he doesn’t know what his options will be if we go into 2025 & park still isn’t MLB ready Noteworthy to me was this: “At the point of time that one side is saying it’s done, and we’re saying it’s not, we’ll cross that bridge when we get there.”

I remember reading an @Athletics official press release when the Coliseum was mentioned as the backup plan if HT fell through. Wish there would’ve been some contractual obligation to this.

For more context, Kaval said Coliseum site was an assured route to a stadium if HT failed. AlCo sold their half in sweetheart deal for Fisher, they violated Surplus Land Act, Oak sued, MLB said to drop it, Oak did, then Coliseum site was suddenly no longer viable. Very shady.

“The A’s have not secured funding to build a new stadium, but team executives told Las Vegas officials that “we’re in good shape with the financing.” - David Danzis of LVRJ At least a writer for the LVRJ wrote about how the A’s have not secured funding.

Many doom loopers said it couldn’t get done. But @MayorShengThao has announced the sale of the City’s half of the Coliseum to AASEG! This sale protect critical services, leads to a 5 billion investment into East Oakland, and ensures the Coliseum will live on for years to come!

So Fisher and Co. didn’t have a development agreement draft ready and pretty much stole a copy from the Raiders while making minor adjustments to it. These are not serious people.
This helps explain why LVSA was able to produce a draft of an incomplete development agreement. It’s like a copy/paste job from Raiders stadium experience. Edits will obviously be made. Question is, when will the final draft be available?

I don’t believe MLB will let them squat in Sacramento for more than a year without a game plan moving forward. I do agree that there has been more movement in Sacramento than LV as of late.

Worth noting there's been no movement regarding Vegas yet more movement in Sacramento. They are going to squat there and keep raking in revenue sharing. I shudder to think how they will handle playoffs because that park can only hold 10k, no going back to Oakland for 50k!

@OakStadiumWatch What I’ve seen so far looks like Vegas is done and a player boycott of Sac is brewing. The other shoe is deactivating the team until Fisher builds a stadium somewhere. Leaving a hole in the AL west until then.
