When Stations Casino bought the Palms it had a few scratching their heads questioning the purchase. Now the rumor all over town is that the Rio will be torn down so a new MLB stadium can be built on the land. The Palms is in very close proximity. Stations knew what they were doing. If the rumor holds true then the next question would be who would on the radar of possibly moving to Vegas. If not an expansion team then one would have to be suspicious of the recent move by the LA Angels to not renew their lease with Angels Stadium in Anaheim. Although it would be an unlikely move away from the LA market and one Las Vegas can’t match, but it still raises an eyebrow and fuels the Las Vegas MLB rumor even more.
It’s to the point that many in Vegas don’t accept it as a rumor anymore but rather a done deal a team is coming.
