A competent commissioner would force a sell to a local group (like the Warriors owner who would buy them), but baseball wants to leave Oakland at all costs. Gag orders, suppressing information, lying about information, and overall incompetence rule not only the A’s ownership box, but also Manfred’s office.

I can’t wait until the public funding eventually gets on a Nevada ballot and they lose that money, too.

As bad as the NHL is, at least Bettman fights to keep teams in the market. The MLB has gone from first to third because of decisions like this. Do we think Las Vegas is big enough for 3 teams? Let's see.

Once they go to Vegas, he will sell the team and be done with it. Oakland baseball will never be the same.
