MLB owners unanimously voted to allow the relocation of the Oakland A’s to Las Vegas to go through. While it’s not the end of the road, the odds of A’s baseball staying in Oakland seem to be slipping away.

Good morning, baseball fans.

It’s a sad day for baseball. Yesterday, every MLB ownership group voted to allow the relocation of the Oakland Athletics to Las Vegas to move forward, something that had already been endorsed by Commissioner Rob Manfred.

While the path is still littered with obstacles (such as where the team will even play after the 2024 season when their lease is up at the Coliseum) it seems as though owner John Fisher’s cash grab will likely go through.

Which is yet another gut punch to sports fans in the East Bay, who have already lost the Raiders and Warriors to other markets, despite having an excellent pedigree of success in the East Bay.
