Vegas A's
-
Do you think we are going to get the actual LV ballpark in The Show 2025 since the A's ballpark wont be done until 2028 or will it be just Oakland Coliseum until then.
-
We didn't get a Globe Life card before 2020 and we didn't get a Truist card before 2017, so I doubt we get the new Vegas park until it opens.
But if Oakland voids their lease and they have to play somewhere else between now and then, we could get that.
-
You’ll get whatever stadium they play in from 2024 through that stadium being constructed.

Looks like Oakland is pushing to keep the A's branding. And be a top contender when any other relocation or expansion comes up.

Vegas technically already have the A's. The Aces of the WNBA, so they should get a new name. The Vegas '777's' or something wacky like that.

@SaveFarris Las Vegas Bakllpark is the minor league park they will be playing at till 2028. Next year they are still in oakland, but 2025 they will be in vegas playing at Las Vegas Ballpark, their triple A stadium.

This is an interesting read. Says they might bounce around from 2025-2027. Suggests they might even play at San Francisco some of the season.

Might not be popular but I love it, on top of that getting a Major league ball park like Las Vegas Ball Park will be awesome.
yes mate absolutely - the idea is terrific - going to vegas is already fun but the idea of flying there for a ballgame, some nice dinners and cirque du soleil - a baseball team there would be awesome
-
On the A’s website, it is states they are working with MLB for an interim location after 2024. They may even get an extension on their Oakland lease. I can’t imagine anyone wanting to go to their games in Oakland knowing they are gone, gone, gone.
-
Someone should do a Create A Stadium of Allegiant Stadium in a baseball configuration. They've played baseball in the LA Coliseum and the Alamodome. Why not?
-
@TheGoaler The Blackjacks, the 21's, the Outlaws, the Nukes, the vipers, the flemingos, the Silver Snakes. Hell, I might be open if they renamed them the Strippers
-
Word on the street is they are in talks with Shippet Stadium to play a few seasons there in order to Jumpstart their offense.

The Athletics's website says they are keeping the Athletics's brand.

The should be called the Moe ‘Greens‘ (Greenes)

Their attendance is going to be cut in half. Down 12 fans per game years over year

No kidding! Who will buy season tickets for a team that is leaving the city? Why even invest anything in them? The only people I can see attending games are fans rooting for the other team.
Now, if they had moved to a city closer to Oakland, like Sacramento, then I can see the new fan base seeing them in their old digs before they move. There is a vested interest there. They could even have changed to the California A's since the Angels abandoned that moniker for one that doesn't belong in front of their name.

Los Angeles literally means City of Angels, it belongs in front of their name more than California or Anaheim

Wrong. It means The Angels. When you say The City of Los Angeles, then you are saying the City of the Angels (Spanish to English). But, when referring to the team's location ID moniker, they are not in the city of Los Angeles, the county of Los Angeles, or the area of Los Angeles. We might as well call the Dodgers the Brooklyn Dodgers because that is where they originated. It makes no sense. The only reason they changed it to Los Angeles was for marketing purposes.
They could always move back to Los Angeles and play in the Coliseum like they used to...then I wouldn't gripe about it.

@St-Assassin8577
I think the strippers would make the fans appreciate their mascot more.
-
@Blind_Bleeder
I hate it, but I think the rough translation is "The the Angels Angels of city of Angels." Being from Orange County, I miss the old Anaheim Angels moniker.
