@ThatBootlegGuy It depends. They have MLB over the barrel of MLBPA quietly and behind the scenes nixed playing in a minor league park altogether. That’s my real hope; if that’s the case they stay or get an expansion team. That said,if it’s just about the TV $$ they can get the land back at least
@ThatBootlegGuy I think that is the gamble. Is it enough for them to suffice in SLC or Reno. Can they make it on $16M TV revenue?! But let's be real, if they could survive in SLC or Reno they would have never came back to the table. It's really real. Fisher and Kaval know that.
@ThatBootlegGuy Interesting. What are the other realistic viable options for the A's to reduce leverage? Not saying Oakland can get them to commit to HT or anything, but they can deny them the Coli, which would have Owners giving Fisher the stink eye, may be leverage a sale?! Worth a try IMO.
@ThatBootlegGuy They don’t have a crazy amount of leverage to achieve their stated objectives (expansion/team name). But they also don’t have a strong desire to keep the team an extra three years if they’re in fact moving.
I don't think the city of Oakland has as much leverage as some of y'all think, but they can most certainly squeeze a few more dollars out of the A's.

Unless an Oakland #Athletics 💚 extension for bumbling team owner #JohnFisher includes keeping the franchise name, colors & a ‘legally binding’ guarantee of expansion from @MLB …then please send both him and #MLB to Las Vegas, ASAP. 💨💨💨

Truly remarkable how quickly A's went from MLB darling back in the Moneyball days, to now being an out-and-out embarrassment for the league in every respect of how they operate. A's fans have seen it for awhile, but glad it's getting recognition it deserves. Thanks @TylerKepner

I think Oakland officials should listen to what the A's are asking and what they're offering and then walk away. All this talk about SF, Sacto, Vegas minor league park, Utah. The A's say they have so many options. They got nothing.

Remember how the Raiders kept making headlines about other temp locations, but stayed at the Coliseum? Agreements and promises to stay/expand in Oakland are meaningless unless they’re legally binding. If they’re committed to leaving, I don’t want them here one second longer.

I feel like there's a few folks in A's Twitter that @Kaplan4Oakland should bring on into these talks to keep this whole thing honest. The city shouldn't budge a goddamn inch on this.

A Trump victory in November would end American democracy. Here’s why I’m going to spend the next nine months making lame jokes about Biden’s age. by Jon Stewart
1. A’s are committed to Oakland without fisher (meaning he sells to local buyer) 2. Fisher gives land back to city Or 1. Fisher gives land back and 2. Colors and name stay in Oakland. Other than that, bye Felicia!

There’s a lot more cooking than people realize. 🤫 More on that later. But Oakland has no reason to give up 25-27 seasons for cheap. And I know for a fact they already have another tenant lined up for 2025 that will make them more than they are currently making on the A’s.
Here’s what I think whenever someone suggests raising the Social Security retirement age: there’s someone who didn’t work construction all their life. Who didn’t carry little kids around as a preschool teacher. Who didn’t help patients in and out of beds as a nurse.
Opinion | Yes, Donald Trump raped a woman and defamed her for years. But at least he’s in his late 70s, not his early 80s.
I swear. If Oakland does not extort a severe payment - i.e. sale of the team, the name/colors/brand remaining in Oakland etc. they had better knock this shit off. The people of the East Bay do not want these fuckers here. Let them drown. #SellTheTeam #Athletics #FisherOut

Gentle note to House Republicans. You work for the American people, not Vladimir Putin. Pass the damn bipartisan national security bill.
Let’s be clear: If the A’s are planning to relocate, their lease should NOT be extended UNLESS their is signed commitment from MLB to expand to Oakland and keep the A’s name in Oakland. We hope @MayorShengThao and @Kaplan4Oakland will remain strong about this.
