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.
