I figured this deserved to be in a new thread for next season. Tropicana Field will not be fully repaired by 2025 and the Rays will have to find somewhere else to play next season.

Also, I do believe the A's will be playing in Sacramento or Portland, or somewhere until their Stadium is ready in Vegas (2026?)

The A's will be playing in Sacramento, starting next season, until they get their stadium built in Las Vegas (good luck with that ).

Man, if the Mets don't re-sign him I hope my Giants do. We could really use his bat.
