While I always root for the Astros, I'd also like a perfect storm where the Rays make the World Series and host a few games inside their new 11,000 seat stadium.

MLB would all of a sudden magically announce the Trop has been fixed just in time if that happens
I'm sure the inside got damaged, but couldn't they just fix the field and play games with no roof ?tjack16 said:The Porkchop Express said:

Rays host the Yankees at the Yankees spring training field in the playoffs while the A's play Boston in Sacramento.

The longer the insides are exposed to the elements, the more screwed up it will get. Nothing in there was meant to be outside. I can't see any way the city justifies spending the money to fix it or even get it in playable shape. Supposedly they had a lot of turnover in local government and the deal for the new stadium may be on the rocks, so they're probably about to have another Oakland situation.

To further our conversation about Yordan, he was just named all MLB for the 5th time! He's only played 5 seasons - pretty impressive.
Allez Rays!
Montreal Rayons du Diable!

And this entire staff would be referred to as...the Hittites.
No no no on Santana. He's a great guitarist, but we don't need another 39 year old first baseman.

One thing is that he has plate discipline and walks, which if we lose Breggy is something we will have in short supply.
Disregard. Sorry, I misread the post I was replying to.

Truly a sad day...... I'm pretty surprised Coca-Cola wouldn't renew
So does this mean all the oranges in the train get replaced with...
window units...

Freon bottles
They will change Orbit out for the Abominable Snowmonster from the old Christmas special.

In the enron days, I think they had a separate sponsor for the whatever the train was hauling. Could do that again.
No local company wants to step up and get the naming rights? Wtf?
the Astros may have priced out the local companies
Hard to imagine between energy oil, and medical firms based here.
Or is it just a bold plan to keep Kukuchi?
