Greetings from Tennessee. I'm a former Connecticut resident and life long Boston Red Sox and MLB fan. It saddens me to see a great old MLB organization like the Athletics against the ropes in Oakland and on the verge of moving to Las Vegas. I doubt the ghosts of Connie Mack, Charlie Finley and Jimmy Foxx would approve. If the A's move from Oakland to Las Vegas it'll be the fourth city that the A's have played in during the team's history. The team was founded in Philadelphia, moved to Kansas City, then Oakland and now potentially Las Vegas. If they must move I'd prefer that the A's relocate to Montreal or even Nashville. In my opinion baseball should be played outdoors and that's not going to be popular in the oven that is Las Vegas in the summer.

Hi Paul. Don’t know if Oakland would move to either Nashville or Montreal, but once the A’s and Rays stadium issues are settled, I do believe MLB will add two more franchises with Montreal and Nashville heading the list. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Dan
