Always appreciate Ken’s insights and candor. As a lifelong A’s fan this whole debacle is heartbreaking and absolutely despicable.
The Oakland fiasco is ultimately Rob Manfred’s failure.
Bud Selig started the thing going, Manfred just took it over when Selig retired
@@michaelleroy9281 I cannot believe they inducted Selig who almost destroyed baseball into the HOF.
Wholeheartedly
Oakland has no business having a pro team. The city is disgusting and shameful.
Oakland is ultimately Oakland's failure.
Even if you are for the move to Vegas, the fact that they are playing in a minor league ballpark for 3 years is a joke.
The park seats ~14K. Not like the A's get bigger crowds in Oakland.
@@rhp_6926 its more about areas for tv and radio telecasts as well as added battling cages and bullpen issues
As a person who lives in Vegas, the sentiment is meh. Who cares? No excitement. None. And no dollars to this Fisher guy. Are you kidding? Lansing Lugnuts run a better operation.
With the way the A's look right now we probably dont have to worry about any playoff games in Sacramento
They should change the A's name next year to the appropriate...The Triple A's !
These people like ken need to confront the A'S OWNER
The A's owner is notorious for not giving interviews unless it's on his terms.
Manford Man should of not of let this happen
Thanks for being honest guys
How the hell does a LV taxpayer that is footing the stadium bill get excited for this clown show organization? The traffic is unbearable already on The Strip... This will be the Marlins in a new city.
Manfred should have ensured John Fisher that he stay in Oakland until Vegas was either figured out or discarded. Letting them play in a minor league ballpark is extremely embarrassing, I can't wait to play MLB the show next year and see the tiny rendered minor league ballpark amongst the REAL stadiums. We need Tony Clark and the MLBPA to shut this down and put Fisher in his place! MLB has been complicit in all of this by enabling and empowering John Fisher when he should have been punished for what he has done to this team and these fans!
That's all the A's need for their games. They're really just a minor league team now.
@@tedjohnson7485 The Triple A's
@@MM33003 You must've never been to the Coliseum. Go do your homework on our history.
They just wanted the team out of Oakland which is why the Giants rolled out the red carpet for them to move to their AAA team's stadium.
@@smokey5100I have been to both stadiums and area's those stadiums are at. I'm from Alameda county and lived in Sacramento most of my life. Stadium in Sacramento isn't much worse than the coliseum besides the lower standards in the locker rooms but of course that's going have to change cause of the player's association "which still will probably be the minimum cause Fisher". For sure Old Sacramento is way nicer of a area than Oakland is. Even with the decline of Downtown and Old Sacramento the last 20 years. Either way, Fisher needs to sell the team soon after the move either way. He's shit. We all can agree on that.
Montgomery to Boros You're Fired!!!! 👍🏻💯
The A's pulled an Arizona Coyotes. At the end of the second of a, "3 year stint" in a college arena, with no real stadium plans in sight.
Batting cages can be purchased and upgraded. I agree with everything said, but lets stop worrying about batting cages for god's sake. They can UPGRADE the facility if need be. There is plenty of space to work with, as opposed to the insane proposed Vegas footprint. I actually hope the Vegas site falls through and Fisher gets squeezed. The A's may be in Sactown for a decade at this point.
Follow the $$ Manfred and Fisher go way back.
Teams with clout may say we are not playing there if Fisher's "upgrades" are not up to their standards. Especially when it's cooler in Las Vegas than Sacramento.
no it isn't by a long shot
@@WMusick Record temp in Las Vegas at 2,000 feet elevation is 113º F in the shade at the airport. Sacramento record is 116º F in 2022, but if you don't trust modern temps like I don't the 116º broke the record set in 1925 and was 114º F before the city heat island effect was a thing. I've been there in July and the humidity from the Delta was horrible.
The A's owner has treated the team like a minor league franchise. Now they'll have a ballpark to match.
It's so bad in Oakland right now the Oakland airport wants to be called San Francisco...
What's going to happen if Las Vegas fails and they are stuck in Sacramento? Is MLB going to trust Fisher to get a deal done elsewhere while his team plays in Sacramento indefinitely?
Lifelong A's fan here: Regardless if the A's were playing in Oakland or Sacramento, no big name free agent would sign with the A's. And John Fisher will never spend money on a big name free agent, even if the team plays in Las Vegas. He's a miser and that's how he rolls.
I kinda remembering you telling us this would never happen -- AKA the A's playing in Sacramento.
Nah. /
If MLB had promotion/relegation then there'd be a punishment for an owner being cheap and letting your team suck.
So basically the dbacks owner followed the peter siedler approach. Good to see
Oh goodie! A novel adventure in the wild wild west. How would Mark Twain cover it, AI? :)-
Can't wait to see the A's in Sacramento🐘⚾️✅️🟨🟩
NBC sports California is already the home of the A's and Sac Kings (so they technically aren't really changing their market especially when Sac is less than an hour away from the bay area). NBC sports Bay Area does not include the A's, they are a Giants affiliate, both networks are broadcasted in Sacramento, the Bay Area and Northern California.
There was a time when it was Fox sports bay area and they were not affiliated with Comcast Sports Net (early to mid 2000's). Comcast bought FSN Bay Area years ago and rebranded to NBC sports Bay Area and Comcast sports net to NBC Sports California
Sac is NOT LESS than an hour away from The Bay Area
Diamondbacks can't open/close the roof when people are inside the park. They are afraid a cable might break
The average attendance for a game in Oakland was around “10,000” a game but never seemed like that from t,v views 🤷🏻♂️seem like they might have more in Sacramento
Or even in Vegas, that so many people are trying to trash.
In two spring training games A’s drew 7,900 in game 1, I believe, and like 9,500 in a 10,000 capacity stadium and I’ll stress again that was in a Vegas market, that so many are trying to trash the relocation claiming there is zero interest in Vegas.
I frankly think those numbers I gave are solid for a spring training games in a market that supposedly uninterested.
The A's averaged 20000 as recently as 2019.
@@ultimatemaitai averaged 20,000 in a stadium that seats over 60,000, that’s terrible, I mean that was before Fisher brought up the Vegas relocation.
Btw, Oakland claims to have all this undying love for the A’s all of a sudden.
🤣Even Oaklands baseball team is homeless.
Arizonies, do not fall for this trick. You will waste tax payer money and down the road, the greedy owners will still extort you into building them a new stadium. Happened with the Jack Murphy Stadium renovation in the 90s, and the Padres still demanded a new stadium be built downtown. The taxpayers fell for it hook line and sinker. The Padres promised it would create 5000 new full time jobs, when in fact it only accounts for 50. John Moores the owner of the team, and incredibly the developer of the project made $700 million on the downtown development, and another $400 million when he sold the team. *STOP THE INSANE MADNESS OF SOCIALISM FOR $BILLIONAIRES!!*
Don't tell people what to do.
@@TheBatugan77 dont be a dupe.
I see the Athletics future as a brand to represent all of Northern California. They have even have green color in logo !!! A Vegas move would be a disaster plain and simple. There is much more money and way more baseball fans in Northern California 👈
You guys have no idea what you are talking about. It is a genius move by Manfred. This is Sacramento. Sutter Health Park is going to be packed with 14k for every game and it is going to be the best party atmosphere in the MLB.
Sac A's has a nice ring to it.
A Sacs has a better ring to it.
They're not going to be the Sac A's no city name
@@michaelleroy9281 remember the "California Angels"? What happened to that?
purely rhetorical question. Im from OC dude. don't you see my Vans and OP shorts?
You guys are concerned that Fisher is not going to be able to sign expensive free agents? ...LOL... When the hell has he ever been able to sign ANY good free agents? Its not even an issue. With Fisher, he will NEVER sign a good free agent. The man will not spend money, have you not noticed?
Hotel? Skydome
A travesty. Fisher is a liar and Vivek is a fool. This will not end well for the cities, the players, the fans and MLB.
People from San Francisco move to Sacramento and travel to work in San Francisco so wtf yall talking about you want a job in Cali you gotta drive. Oh they can also take the train like they want us to do for games in Oakland and San Francisco. They have a year to upgrade the Facility just like the blue jays triple a organization did
Go Sac A's!
The move is a win for Sacramento. It will provide more jobs here, more interest in MLB and the A's, and they'll be able to see the best baseball players in the world when they come to Sacramento to play the A's. I live nearby Sacramento and I'll definitely come to cheer my favorite opposing teams.
s"A"c TOWN "A's"
MLB Baseball will be the next bubble to burst. Players will demand astronomical salaries and owners will not pay the extra luxury tax.
Meanwhile the crime will increase even more with the As gone, jobs lost, which is really why MLB left, crime or was it just the lure of starlight in Vegas?
Dude its a minor league ballpark because a minor league team that plays there. The playfield is the same. Its already been discussed and there building new major league club houses, ball pins , and will update the lighting and scoreboards to standard major league requirements. So your complaint is what? Cant be the 5 star hotels.. there already there.. i guess its the 14000 capacity? Oakland only drawing 5000 a game. Sacramento will almost triple that. Stop with minor minor minor thing. All will be upgraded.
You’re a kook!
It's a triple AAA baseball field,,,The players in AAA or a step from the big leagues. MLB players play there ,,
Correct it's made for minor players so they have something to look forward to if they make the major. There going to convert to a major. The point is everyone is acting like there just showing up and playing with nothing changing about the ballpark... It will be ready for next year
Sacramento is much stronger market if Athletics can capture NorCal region from Oakland to Ukiah. I would definitely be considering a rebrand as West Coast Athletics or California Athletics or NorCal Athletics. Also a Sacramento Athletics name would be major step back in terms of branding towards back to Kansas City A's era!!! Listen up Kings basketball. 👈👆🚗🔥
On the bright side. Oakland can finally demolish that toilet called the coliseum. Been there once that place was literal dump.
Hey Ken, you'll be in Las Vegas for the A's 2028 opener begging for free tickets...
Oh. Boo-hoo. Oakland city council made there decisions and lost all professional sports in that city. Blame the government not the team. Team needs a facility and Sacramento stepped up and was the smart financial choice for the A’s. Oakland voted for this type of governing which clearly has zero experience in doing so, there for they deserve every bit of this.
Not a good idea for any ball clubs to go to another city in California since California State itself is on the decline. Las Vegas is a far better choice.
The world and especially Oakland has changed. These idiots talk like they are businessmen from the 1980's and need to adjust and get on with the program.
🤜
Sacramento with a billion dollar+ retractable roof ballpark is FAR stronger market than Vegas or Oakland could ever dream to be 🔥🔥🔥🔥🍺😎🎵🧞💯💯
MLB about to lose so many dedicated fans in Oakland. what a mess
