The biggest news in baseball this week revolved around the owners meeting that took place in Arlington Texas and the unanimous vote to approve the relocation of the Oakland Athletics ball club to Las Vegas Nevada. The decision to go to Vegas stems from owner John Fisher’s request for a new stadium being built via public funds was denied by the city of Oakland, and the years of wear and tear that sit on the coliseum. As a Pittsburgher who is currently stationed in Las Vegas, it got me thinking if we could ever see our Pittsburgh Pirates seek a relocation.
Could we ever see the Pirates relocate?
