i badly want to see baseball in latin america but it won't happen for a while. brooklyn/NJ/buffalo would be nice just cause NY is way too big for only two teams

voted "stay in Miami, move Loria"

no one in miami seems to give a shit about baseball?

congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 15:55 (twelve years ago)

NNJ, nice local punching bags for resurrected Mets

buffalo can barely keep the bills
mlb dodged a bullet by not giving them an expansion team back in the early 90s
It would be nice for jersey to have a team but Portland or Salt Lake would be better markets to exploit

I believe even Portland resident Rob Neyer has expressed doubts that the city would support a team/build a new park.

saltwater incursion (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 16:42 (twelve years ago)

Yeah Portland won't build a new park and I'm not sure the population center would be big enough to support an MLB franchise.

One bad call from barely losing to (Alex in SF), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 16:47 (twelve years ago)

lehigh valley, columbus and indianapolis were the top-drawing triple-a clubs this year, followed closely by low-a dayton, which has sold out every game for like a decade. these teams averaged 8500-9000 per game.

Suburban DC so they can be the Maryland Marlins, which would be hilarious spoken in the local dialect.

Santa Ana is about 7 miles from Anaheim.

tbh they should just be contracted

mookieproof, Wednesday, 14 November 2012 17:03 (twelve years ago)

and then form a third league just for the astros

i would like to change my vote to Vancouver. somehow missed it the first go-over.

Voted New Orleans just because I like the idea of it.

pun lovin criminal (polyphonic), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 17:43 (twelve years ago)

i put montreal because you asked where would *I* move it & i'm selfish & i live here. might not be a good idea though. Call em the Montrearlins or something.

Thwartstop (Will M.), Wednesday, 14 November 2012 20:47 (twelve years ago)

Jason Parks' Marlin prospect roundup at BP is pretty high on the system, and esp Jose Fernandez and Christian Yelich.

"It’s hard to soothe the recent wounds inflicted on the Marlins fan base by selling them on a future hope, but the seeds of this organization are still quite strong, with high-impact talent sitting atop a list featuring quality depth."
