GS also bailed, but I think their new place is privately financed. So was the Giants' ballpark.
A's owner bought the county's share of the facility, so yes, he is in bed with the city.
In other news, Manfred isn't going to slink off until '29. MLB hasn't had a good commissioner since Fay Vincent, and they got rid of him because he had some backbone. Five years to figure out who the owners' new lackey will be.
Will Mike Trout end up as the most talented player of his generation not to win a World Series?
As long as he stays with the Angels, probably.
Everybody: name your candidates (any generation)
1950's to 1970's - Ernie Banks, who didn't even see a World Series
Per google:
Due to the steroid use, Bonds was never inducted into the Hall of Fame, but was still one of the greatest in the game in his 22 seasons in the league. Despite all his accomplishments, he never won the World Series.
They didn't say "won"
"See..." as in "get to play in..."
He played in the 2002 WS.
Growing up a Red Sox fan in Maine I always wanted to see Carl Yastrzemski win a WS. But that drought wouldn't end until well after he retired.
Him, Ted and Fisk (amongst many others) all deserved rings but alas, it was not to be.
Side note: Dubs = GS
Yes, I know. But I can't being myself to use nicknames like that.
Excuse me, my wine glass needs to be tended to, here in the suite… 🥂
Yeah, but its implied. Going to a World Series is like going to four Super Bowls in a row (ahem Bills). If you don't win, who cares.
I'm seeing reports/news stories that the Oakland As may not be moving to Las Vegas. They need to find a new home, since there is no stadium in LV yet. From what little I know, it seems TV money is part of the problem, not playing in a MLB stadium means the As may not get the cash from the TV deals. I don't know the details but I think the owner painted himself into a corner.
I guess they (the As) started negotiating a new lease but the city is playing hard ball - good for them

Giants did not win the 2002 World Series. It still sticks in my craw after all these years. Bonds was absolutely magnificent, but the Giants' bullpen wasn't.
Yeah saw they may play in Sacramento, also heard from people in Reno they might take over our MILB's place until Vegas is ready, but they are closing that place down in Vegas in April i believe and will start soon after.. wont be ready till 2028 though
