JCon Posted November 15 Report Posted November 15 6 minutes ago, Goalie said: Ppl who live there say that The Trop has no drainage system on the field. It rains lots there. It’s gonna be flooded if they don’t fix it soon. Correct. It was designed as an indoor only facility, so no drainage. I'm happy for the Rays fans who will continue to be able to attend home games but it's going to be a mess with rainouts and heat. I assume that the Tarpons will also use the facility next season too? Scheduling nightmare. Goalie 1
SpeedFlex27 Posted November 16 Report Posted November 16 (edited) 9 hours ago, JCon said: Insurance though. And, the City of Tampa must provide them a facility to play in, per the agreement. What about building a new 35000 seat stadium in Montreal & moving the team there? The team could use Olympic Stadium in the interim. Are the Bronfman's still involved in trying to bring a MLB team to Montreal? Edited November 16 by SpeedFlex27

The Big Owe is not available they are pumping another 870 m into the place and replacing the roof which apparently will take 4 years to replace😁

There is little to no interest in bringing another team to Canada right now. No expansion until everything is sorted with the As and Rays, for sure. They need leverage on the cities. Can't see anyone building a domed stadium in Montreal right now, either.

bustamente Posted Wednesday at 02:31 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 02:31 PM The Rays have more problems getting shovels in the ground for a new park.

I guess the government has 3 options, fix Tropicana and forget about a new park still might leave, fix Tropicana and find another way to finance a new park or don't do anything and just let them go,
bustamente Posted 10 hours ago Report Posted 10 hours ago Judge and Ohtani MVP's of their respected leagues, no arguments from me they are the two best players in the game today
