RECAP: Major League Baseball is looking to enhance player experience in the minor league, but the decision comes at a price that could cost San Antonio its double-A team, the Missions.
The MLB raised the standard for its facility requirements. That means Wolff Stadium, home of the Missions, must have multiple batting cages, women’s locker rooms, larger clubhouses for both teams, office renovations, more storage, and increased seating by about 2,000 seats.
“We don’t have a lot of major league teams for anything, so we might as well take a little bit of pride in that,” said Sam Dehm.“I love going to Missions games, so I would be pretty upset by it. Just had a lot of really good memories that I’ve had out there. It’s a great family environment,” said Nolan Ellis.
“It would cost a lot more to build a new one. Estimates have varied anywhere between $75 million to $150 million,” Wolff said.
