Oakland also has restarted talks with the A's to keep them there. We'll see how this all plays out, but this sounds very similar to the situation with the Diamondbacks and rumors of their possible move to Vegas a couple of years ago. This is more of a tactic from team owners to get cities back to the negotiating table in order to get what they want. I don't se the A's leaving Oakland and I would bet Oakland is hard pressed not to lose another franchise.
