Baseball In Washington Dc?

[vaman61]

I work down here in DC so definately yes from me. The other cities really don't compare in my view. My only fear is they will do something dumb like locate out near Dulles Airport in Virginia instead of in the City where they really belong. What do other people think? Does anyone outside of Montreal and DC care where the Expos go?

I live in VT and Montreal is about 2 hours from here, so Montreal moving out of town means no more baseball games up there....

 

Also, the Vermont Expos (single-A rookie league team) would probably move out of Burlington if the team went south.

 

On the other hand, I dislike Olympic Stadium. So much less character than Fenway Park...

 

BUT, since Montreal HAS to move, Washington DC isn't a bad place. It may hurt the Baltimore Orioles being so close, which is why they are working agaisnt it.

 

It would be really interesting to have baseball in Puerto Rico, but I just don't see that working out.

It looks like the Expos will move to D.C. next year.
