Overview

  • The Rays have surged to a 45-35 record at Steinbrenner Field and hold the top AL Wild Card position.
  • The 11,000-seat capacity at their temporary home has raised concerns over ticket allocation, broadcast logistics and postseason revenue.
  • MLB and the Rays have held preliminary talks on relocating potential ALCS and World Series home games if Steinbrenner Field’s size proves insufficient.
  • LoanDepot Park in Miami and Truist Park in Atlanta are leading candidates to host later-round playoff matchups.
  • Tropicana Field remains under repair after Hurricane Milton damage and is expected to reopen by the 2026 season.
