Are international cities (Canada, Mexico and beyond) viable? Would Sacramento & Oakland attempt expansion?
Description
In this fourth and final part exploring the inevitable MLB Expansion, a second city (or region) from North Carolina brings together a group for one of the fastest growing areas in the United State. What's behind the Raleigh Capitals? And why is Tennessee and North Carolina seemingly a lock to get Major League Baseball?
Could Oakland and Sacramento still have the taste of the big leagues after the Athletics move to Las Vegas? Will larger cities with other Major 4 franchises - like San Antonio, Indianapolis or New Orleans - make a push?
And how close did Buffalo, New York nearly come to getting expansion in the last half-century? What is the Continental League and why is Buffalo the only one from those eight cities without an MLB team?
