Which MLB franchise is most likely to change locations?

Just a fun question. Which MLB team(s) would be most likely bought out and moved to a new location, and where?

My choice: Pittsburgh Pirates move to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

    The A's, not sure where to. Maybe San Jose.

    Oakland A's need a new stadium

    Tampa Bay Rays need a new stadium

    Pittsburgh Pirates have a modern state of the art stadium

    How do you know Oklahoma City, OK could support a MLB team?

    I suppose the northside of Chicago deserves one! They have not had reputable baseball there in one hundred years! LOL Mexico metropolis, San Juan, Vancouver and Portland (OR) were bantered about for a whilst. I've invariably said carry an AL workforce back to St. Louis since they are the only metropolitan neighborhood to have over 100% attendance-to-population ratio (three.55M fans in a 2.5M subject). San Antonio, Memphis, New Orleans, Salt Lake metropolis, etc. Could be some intriguing areas. I critical doubt Las Vegas will ever get a crew considering that of the legalized playing limitation being so touchy!

    The A's, obviously.

    The A's have already moved from Philadelphia to Kansas City to Oakland... and are currently having trouble getting a new stadium. San Jose is the likely destination.

    The Rays would be my second choice... there's already a Florida team, and they (unlinke the Marlins) can't draw crowds to the Trop even though they are division champion and playoff contender. Maybe they could move to Charlotte or Raleigh and be the Carolina Rays.

    There have been talks with the A's and Bud Selig about funding for a new stadium in San Jose. The A's seriously want to move to San Jose and be called the San Jose A's. I think it will happen and it will be in the next five years. The A's are the most likely team to move. Even though the location that they would be moving to would be still in the bay area. I think you probably have heard about this, haven't you?

    Most Likely The A's

    The Pirates are never going to move. They have been in Pittsburg since the beginnning of time,

    My guess is that the Oakland A's move to POrtland, OR.

    Toronto Blue Jays. They have good fans, but not enough of them. If they moved, my guess is they would move to somewhere in Pennsylvania.

    I agree, the A's are most likely to move.

    Definately the A's
