Rangers New Ballpark Could Be MLB Neutral Site 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Apr 28, 2020 12:16 pm

The Texas Rangers feel their new ballpark could be part of Major League Baseball\'s neutral site plan if the 2020 season is eventually played.

\"Depending upon a variety of the other factors, it makes a lot of sense,\" Jon Daniels said. \"Just given the nature of the market, the proximity of a lot of the facilities, the quality of the facilities, the quality of not just baseball facilities, but the hotels in the area and other things that you\'d need.\"

MLB and the players\' association have had preliminary discussions about potential ways for the season to start when given the go-ahead by federal, state and local governments and health officials amid the coronavirus.

The Rangers still haven\'t opened their new $1.2 billion stadium with a retractable roof in Arlington -- just off Interstate 30, halfway between Dallas and Fort Worth.
