Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred says a vote on the Athletics’ prospective move to Las Vegas potentially could come when the league’s owners meet next month.
With their future unsettled, the Athletics are struggling at an historic level on the field and in the stands.
Manfred was in Milwaukee as Wisconsin legislators debate potential funding plans for American Family Field, the Brewers’ home stadium since 2001. Manfred expressed confidence the state would work something out. “This is a gem of a ballpark,” Manfred said. “It’s really important that the existing obligation under the lease be funded so that this great ballpark is maintained on a regular basis. It needs to be done in a timely way.”
Vos has said he wants to work a deal that would look for a commitment from the team to remain in Milwaukee longer and not rely as heavily on money from a one-time budget surplus that’s projected to be around $7 billion.
