Selig is gonna pay a visit to San Francisco within 2 weeks and chat with the Giants top brass about the A's creeping into their turf.

The A's want to relocate to San Jose and build a new stadium there. The Giants got alot of fans in that part of the area and they don't want to be drawn away to the new A's stadium in the future. They need 3.2 million fans to break even on their $130 mil. payroll this upcoming season.

If the Giants don't loosen up on their turf rights, MLB might buy the club, get a new stadium deal, and turn around and sell it off again.

Is SJ that much closer to SF than Oakland? Maybe I dont understand the dynamics of the Bay Area. Though Oakland and SF were right across the bay from each other, and SJ was a bit further north. Wouldnt Oakland moving to SJ cause more Oakland area peeps to go into the SF zone?
