The Athletics' new Las Vegas stadium, which is aiming to open in 2028, now carries a cost of $1.75 billion, or $250 million than previously estimated, per Evan Drellich of The Athletic.

That increase is due to increasing construction costs and 70,000 square feet of more stadium amenities, per Sandy Dean, who owns a small stake in the A's.

"The increases in the cost of the stadium are the responsibility of the team, and the team would most likely finance that with additional contributions from the Fisher family," Dean said.
