Baseball fans in Montreal and Monterrey

A baseball related thread, here? Sure this thread is a bit old but I'll post anyway. I think Montreal will get another baseball team someday (whether its the Rays or some other team). I don't know what the stadium situation is there, that would be the biggest hurdle. Montreal sells out when the Jays play there in the spring, and interest in the MLB has skyrocketed all across Canada thanks to the Jays playoff runs in 2015 and 2016. Frankly I think it would be stupid for the MLB not to capitalise on that, especially with national support dwindling in the US. Though most US markets are still very strong regionally.

Rogers the multi-billion dollar corporation that owns the Jays finally realised (after owning the team for many years) that a professional sports team can be a fantastic marketing tool to push all your wares on the consumer, and when the team is good it also builds loyalty to the brand. Though it can go the other way if you are incompetent in running the team, these days with analytical info all over the place you pretty much have to bury your head in the sand to do that bad of a job (or be just plain poor). I don't see why Canada couldn't support another team.
