A's Ownership Eyes Risky Move to Smaller Las Vegas Market

  • Oakland A's ownership prefers Las Vegas to Oakland for building a new stadium.
  • Las Vegas would become the smallest television market in baseball.
  • The demographics in Vegas are not great for a league trying to get younger and capture growing markets.
  • The A's would be leaving a crowded big market for a crowded small market, considering the other teams already in Vegas.
  • The A's would have to compete with other sports for entertainment dollars in a much smaller market.
