Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred offered a blunt assessment of MLB's prospects for expanding beyond its current group of 30 teams.
In July 2020, as the baseball world prepared to launch an abbreviated season amid a global pandemic, Dave Dombrowski was gearing up for a different kind of project. He joined Music City Baseball LLC, a company formed with the intent of bringing a major league team to Nashville, Tennessee.Dombrowski's focus would soon shift.
Manfred has consistently said he would prefer to find long-term stadiums for the Oakland A's and Tampa Bay Rays before committing to bringing any new teams into the league. Both situations remain at least somewhat unsettled.Next week, municipal leaders in St. Petersburg, Fla. and Pinellas County are scheduled to vote on a new stadium for the Rays that could break ground next year.
