these are small stadiums. these are good for the area.
The mega stadiums for major league teams are a different story.
the pawtucket (RI) red sox are the boston red sox aaa team, but had been under a different owner. they have a nice stadium in the middle of town (home of the longest baseball game ever). boston owner john henry and other venture capitalists have purchased the pawtucket team from the old man's widow.
they're looking to move the team out of a perfectly good baseball stadium and into a patriots place-style megamall where you can piss away every penny you have, for a TRIPLE A BASEBALL TEAM. if they can't find a location in providence, they're moving the team. the impact on the local area will be devastating regardless of where they end up.
