Las Vegas Expos? It's Rollin' the Dice
Don Ruiz of the Tacoma News Tribune looks at Las Vegas' bid for the Expos from the perspective of a Triple-A city that would be affected by any reconfiguration of the Pacific Coast League resulting from the incorporation of Las Vegas (or Portland) into the majors. He notes that Don Logan, GM of the PCL's Las Vegas 51s, is among those who believe that Las Vegas is not yet a major league city:
"I'm not convinced - nor (is Mandalay Baseball Properties, which owns the 51s) - that Vegas is ready yet," he said. "It's still the 52nd media market. We don't have any suburbs."
