MLB is going to go out of its way to protect an owner who has only been a drain on the league so he can build a shoebox sized stadium in the corner of a parking lot because he’s too broke to build his vision in the Bay Area. How is this right? How does it even make sense?

Hey @MLB , here’s one for free. Playoff teams should choose one person from their broadcast teams each to do the national broadcast together. You get the best each team has to offer and they provide meaningful insight on teams they’ve covered all year.

The A’s pitch to MLB: We don’t have a financing plan but that’s okay because we don’t know how much the park will cost because we don’t have a design. Our existing fanbase HATES this and won’t follow us AND no one in LV is excited. Casinos will buy up tickets we hope . 1/2

@DaveKaval Oh good, you’re here. Please explain why season tickets doubled for next year in a way that makes any sense at all. Thanks! Signed, a former long time season ticket holder.

The port of Seattle sits just off of downtown, has had TWO beloved modern stadiums next to it for over 20 years and maintains its vitality. Enough with the lies about a Howard Terminal stadium “destroying” the port.

I’m asking, stop going to A’s games. Stop supporting a league that sneers at your love of the game. Intentionally manipulates your loyalty for your money and the second it can will leave you behind. It’s over. You don’t have to support something this abusive. Have fun elsewhere.

One things for sure. This isn’t over by a long shot. I think this gets waaaaay messier before it gets decided.

A’s move to Vegas still 50/50. Even if it happens, Tropicana as the ballpark site down to 20% probability, per sources.

I am neither mad nor sad. This @Athletics team took me to Japan and was the heartbeat of the best summer of my life. I went to 70 or so games for the 1st time & it was amazing. They’re set up to be absolutely deadly next year & I am excited to be there for it.

From 01 to 65 the A’s had 100+ loss seasons 15 times. From 1966 to present it has happened once. 1979. It would take a miracle run to avoid it this year. Attendance will finish around 750k. The worst non-pandemic season since Finley tore the team down. Fisher must be very proud.

This is a cursed team. A curse that will never be lifted if they leave Oakland. Mark it down.

The A's record of 10-40 is tied for second-worst through an MLB team's first 50 games since 1901 with the 1932 Red Sox, ahead of only the 1904 Washington Senators, who were 9-38 with three ties (.191).

The legend Ray Fosse is gone. Glad I got to meet him briefly, have my hand nearly crushed in his famous handshake and enjoy so many of his broadcasts.

If you’re planning on going to the game tonite. DON’T. Not for the players, not for the coaches, not for the coliseum staff. Don’t let John Fisher use you and them like this. Tonight should be DEAD.

I came back here only to say that this unanimous vote by MLB ownership should be read as the massive “FUCK YOU” to every fan and city who hosts a team that it was meant to be. They will throw your team in some dark corner where it’s destined to fail just to prove a point.
