I'm among those that under rate Rogers Centre (Still think it should have been renamed Rogers Skydome). actually liked it better when it was still unique up until a few years ago and was the only MLB stadium with sliding pits instead of a full dirt infield. now I'd rather play games in Oakland or the Trop, than in Toronto. I definitely would rather play games in Toronto with the roof set to open,its the closed roof Rogers that I cant personally stand. all other stadiums that have retractable roofs, I'm fine with open or closed.

I think this year I'll go after Lindor (regardless of which team I end up using *MAYBE THE JAYS?!?!?!*) Seems like he'd be a really fun guy to play with, and given the Indians current standing re: spending money, he seems like a realistic star to try to acquire (Even though Antonetti said he's not on the block).

Not really sure yet. Maybe a Jays franchise and I pick up Miggy Cabrera for a DH or try to trade for a veteran SP like Verlander.

Baseball is getting a lot younger lately so older veterans are harder to come by.

Cano is definitely not an option for me.

I think the Mariners are interesting because they’ve never been to a World Series so getting them there would be compelling. They’re also sort of a blank slate right now with a roster that you could reshape pretty much any way you want.

Rebuilding Baltimore would be cool, too, and I think trying to make the Mets a consistent contender always has some appeal, more so now with the Beltran fiasco.

I’m a Diamondbacks fan so they’re always fun for me but I think they might intrigue others right now, too.

Rays.

A fun and exciting team and I feel like they are on the brink of being legitimate contenders to go deep into the playoffs. Sleeper pick to win the American League IMO.

With the option to relocate & rebrand now, the Rays are the most compelling in my opinion. They make the most sense to turn into the Montreal Expos.

Came back to say this!

Relocation will between them and the Marlins for me. If they allow you to adjust who's in each division, I'd probably take the Marlins.

Regardless though, having a Montreal-Toronto rivalry in the AL East will be friggin' awesome!

While I agree a Montreal/Toronto rivalry would be sweet I can’t help but feel an Expos team in the AL is just wrong.
