How Montreal would work is easy. Downtown ballpark, build it and the fans will follow Montreal is a festival city. The downtown core is bustling.. Montreal also has history with major league baseball that goes back to Jackie Robinson playing for the Montreal Royals, Brooklyn Dodgers farm team. Montreal is eager to get the expos back. however, if they do not build a stadium downtown and only have the Olympic stadium, it won’t work in the long run. Short term while a stadium is being built downtown sure. All in all there is a market for baseball in Montreal. Hopefully break the 1993/94 curse. ❤
That Expos teams of 1993 & 94 right before strike was really strong and could have arguably won at least 1 World Series. Think Pete Rose, former Red (Cincinnati Reds fan) was part of that team very late in his career. As an idea, maybe have new downtown ballpark named after Jackie Robinson. That would make it historic and legacy continue.
@@matthewsmith2241 apparently Jackie Robinson loved his time in Montreal playing for the Royals. ❤️🍁❤️ Montrealers would be for a new baseball stadium named after him. Mind you it’s in Quebec, so it would be Stade Jackie Robinson.
My preference of expansions are totally Nashville and Montreal... Nashville since there are some empty spaces surrounding Braves to Reds, Nationals, Cardinals, and Rays... Also Montreal to get another Canadian teams too... The problem is, best alignment only works if both are NL teams... For the division it might depends on where the A's gonna be though, maybe stay in Oakland, or relocate to Vegas, maybe even other sites like Sacramento, Portland, or SLC... AL West: Angels, Arizona, Seattle/Colorado, Oakland/Vegas/Sacramento/Portland/SLC NL West: Dodgers, San Francisco, San Diego, Seattle/Colorado AL South: Texas, Houston, Kansas City, Minnesota NL South: Atlanta, Miami, Tampa Bay, Nashville AL North: White Sox, Detroit, Cleveland, Milwaukee NL North: Cubs, St Louis, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh AL East: Yankees, Baltimore, Boston, Toronto NL East: Mets, Philadelphia, Washington, Montreal 🤔🤔🤔
Yeah Montreal! It's time to return to being MLB's greatest shared farm team! They drafted or launched the careers of many great players only to see them leave as the contracts grew to favour the large market teams. Nothing would be different today.
@@MrCubFan415 I know but I'm also a cubs fan and can't say I'm a fan of us going to the AL. I guarantee you that if either of those teams were actually successful historically they wouldn't have been moved
@@CustomBlocks I wouldn’t worry. If any of the NL Central teams had to switch leagues, the Brewers would probably volunteer lol. Also fun fact: before the Brewers switched leagues to the NL, the Royals offered to switch to the NL, but were turned down.
@@CustomBlocks Also, the fact that there’s one Chicago team in each league already makes it extremely unlikely IMO that MLB would put BOTH Chicago teams in the same league
@@MrCubFan415 the owners like having teams in the same city in different leagues. Makes it less of a straight competition between the two, let’s fans root for both
I say bring back the Montreal Expos and a combination of another team. Have 8 divisions 4 teams each. Cut down on regular season games. And expand the playoffs to 8 teams in each league.
Bring the total to 36 with three divisions of six in each league. After the A's move to Vegas and the Tampa mess is over (Tampa, Orlando, who cares), add Portland, Salt Lake City, Charlotte, Nashville, Montreal, and San Antonio or Oklahoma City.
That’s a good idea however it’s taken ages for MLB to even consider the concept of 32 teams plus do you think the league may be a bit too watered down by that point?
Here’s how things should go. Relocation: Rays in Charlotte A’s in Las Vegas(confirmed) Expansion teams: Nashville Portland The AL and NL have 4 divisions each AL: North: White Sox Twins Tigers Guardians South: Rockies Royals Rangers Astros East: Orioles Red Sox Yankees Blue Jays AL West: Angels Athletics Portland Mariners NL: North: Cubs Reds Cardinals Brewers South Rays Marlins Nashville Braves East: Mets Phillies Nationals Pirates West Diamondbacks Dodgers Padres Giants Each team plays AL opponents seven games but an additional games for division rivals = 108 games 48 games in the NL including plus an additional 3 games with rival = 159 and an additional 3 games with a random inter league opponent. For example, the Astros won the AL West and the Braves won the NL South and all AL West Teams play the AL South. So the Braves and Astros play 3 extra games, totaling the amount to 162. The playoff format stays the same.
How tf you have my same ideas? I want a Nashville and Portland expansion and that's the same realignment I had (except that I made another one in which neither Rockies or Rays switch division). I still don't like the idea of the Rays moving out of Tampa Bay but Charlotte would be the best place imo. You could also change Portland for Salt Lake City but as a Mariners fan, I want a close rival.
I’d go to games in Charlotte all the time. Mlb blacks out the Braves, Washington, Baltimore in NC making them hard to watch even though they’re hundreds of miles away from me.
If you're going to align the leagues at eight per division, then by default the playoff system should expand to 16. Top 4 in each division advance, but are seeded/bracketed based on wins in a best of 3 matchup *solely* at the better team's home ballpark. DS is 3, CS is 5, WS is 7. Everything takes place in October, ends first week of November. And every three years, it's WBC time. How do we handle that? Three days after the hypothetical end date of WS Gm7, the qualifiers start. All players have the whole month of October to sign up or drop out. Edit: The DS, CS, and WS are split b/t the two teams' respective ballparks. The matchups before that are not.
@@yankeesforlife24 Not over half, exactly half. If they expand again, it has to be four teams, not two, but the playoffs stay as basically a Sweet 16. Call it the Autumn Dance, Idk 🤣
Oakland A's will likely relocate to Las Vegas; rumor is that the Chicago White Sox are exploring relocation options, with Nashville garnering the most buzz. The Rays are locked into Tampa after securing a new stadium. Follow the corporate money for viable expansion candidates: for markets without an MLB team, Charlotte currently boasts comparable appeal to Pittsburgh and Seattle. It's not a surprise since the Carolina Panthers and Charlotte Hornets were recently purchased by billionaire hedge fund managers. For a second expansion, I'd opt for the most prominent North American (US/Canada) TV market without a team - which is Montreal.
Utah has been the fastest growing state since 2010. The wasatch front has a population of 2.6 million people and quickly growing. They have great support for their nba and mls teams. And will heavily support their nhl team. They have a very young and very healthy population with expendable income. They also have 2 successful big12 teams close to each other. The mlb and nfl would be insane not to move into this market for its potential growth and proven fan support.
I agree with the 40 team league. It's necessary now given that so many cities have become large enough to support a team. It's a bit unfair to fast growing cities that have surpassed many declining cities in the midwest, yet they still do not have teams. I'd add teams in Charlotte, Raleigh, Nashville, Norfolk, Austin, Orlando, Vancouver, Salt Lake City, Sacramento, and San Antonio.
Forty would be awesome! Like I said in another comment, move the A's to Vegas and finalize the Florida situation. Add ten new teams to Montreal. Charlotte, Nashville, Oklahoma City, San Antonio, Salt Lake City, Portland, New Orleans, Memphis, and Brooklyn.
Ask most fans in major cities about being moved into a division against the other team in their market and they will cuss you out. I speculatively suggested this in a bar in Chicago once and was shot at.
MLB needs to address the payroll parity issue before they add more small market AAAA clubs to the majors. There are no major markets remaining that can compete with the current big market teams. People arent going to invest themselves the way they need to for a team that will be a losing team 80% of seasons. Increasing the field will make it harder for the also rans to have their good runs just by increasing the field. NY, LA, SF,BOS,CHI will still be taking an oversize share of top players, playoff berths, and deep playoff runs.
Milwaukee could move. Wisconsin doesnt want to pay for the stadium renovations. At least the bucks won a championship soon after a new arena. Brewers look like it will be a long long time
Josh, bring the Dodgers back to Brooklyn! L.A. will survive with the Angels. Memphis, Nashville, Portland (Oregon), and Charlotte (N.C.) deserve MLB franchises. Also, would it be appropriate to finally land in Buffalo? And lastly, western Canada is asking for a franchise, say the Vancouver Pacifics! Regarding Montreal, "Mount Royal" lost their team when the Expos forfeited the squad after the 2004 season when they left for D.C. They are busy with hockey 365/24/7! 😛
I’d say Nashville, Salt Lake, Montreal and Charlotte are the contenders. Nashville seems pretty likely. It’s between Montreal Charlotte and Salt Lake for the second team .

Personally, I would love to see another team in Montreal, and I’m sure city residents would agree with that too.
It would be cool if there were MLB teams in Montreal and Vancouver someday.
Montreal is the only city In the World Series era of baseball to lose their team and not get it back. I think it's about time for the Expos
You'd have to have a group that puts together a bid for an expansion team and none exists. It won't happen.
