    Angelos controlled the DC market contractually, he had to be paid. MLB wanted us. The Lerner's were shocked to be able to purchase the team.

    I guess they bought land on south waterfront. I’m still super skeptical

    Must be buying part of the Zidel Yards. I think that's the only parcel available down there that would accommodate a baseball stadium.

    It'll be interesting to see potential plans at this location. I hope, whatever they do, they have it facing the river. I don't think they'll be able to have Mt Hood in the background tho.

    I would think you would want to have it facing towards the North to limit sun exposure but I'm just guessing.

    Have it face the downtown skyline. also, there will be so little parking space down there, players will have to take the train to the game.

    And in other news, another home run leads to a broken windshield; more on this story at 11.
