@PackInsider The full picture is the state budget will pass with NO money for MLB Raleigh, and this is just a desperate attempt at a Hail Mary.
The NC MLB initiative would have a much better chance if it was Charlotte-based
@MLBRaleigh All your wishful development can be done without MLB
Why would Dundon cannibalize the development with another sports team? He already has the anchor sports team
Even if Dundon could afford MLB, he’d put the development in another part of town to 2x revenue
With tourist tax jackpot back in play, this time Orlando and Orange County must swing for the fences and pursue Major League Baseball. Here's my column: https://t.co/85Jrjhg7QO
@JPPetersonshow@RaysBaseball@aclendenin says “by hook or by crook” we will get the Rays deal done. Interesting way of framing the Rays deal as if it’s a robbery of the county coffers 🤔🤔🤔
@SteveCona@CityofTampa@TampaSportsAuth Sir, there is a huge question surrounding property taxes. Blindly stumping for the Rays’ stadium deal is quite tone deaf and not winning you any supporters
@TallyBull@TBBJnewsroom The TSA isn’t against the Rays. They just don’t want the Rays’ rush job when they’ve been working with the Bucs for 28 years, the last 3 on this current stadium issue specifically
“I would love to see professional baseball in our community.” — Mayor Jerry Demings ⚾
As Orlando celebrated a historic 76.7 million visitors in 2025, the conversation around bringing Major League Baseball to Central Florida continues gaining momentum.
From tourism and economic growth to community pride and regional identity… Orlando is ready for baseball.
Orlando… we’re on deck.
#OrlandoOnDeck #OrlandoBaseball #OrlandoDreamers #MLBOrlando #BringMLBToOrlando
Apparently Orlando’s skyline finally realized it was missing something... a Major League Baseball team. ⚾👀
The new Orlando Dreamers sign is up, and so is the momentum to bring MLB to Orlando.
We’re not subtle about it anymore.

@mat_pagano@yimbystpete Do you realize Epic Universe - the theme park - was a $7B development? You think this smaller development will be $8-$10B? Bally’s can’t fund the $1.2B development around the A’s stadium on The Strip. The $10B investment is pure fantasy
@JustBB_Media@BNightengale There’s one expansion city that would grow the revenue pie
ORLANDO
There’s money available to build the stadium. They’re the only market building a huge stadium (40k+) and they’re the largest market by far.
Players union will never agree to MON or MEX City
ORL is additive
@hudackom1@jc_bradbury Are you aware that the Nashville group had a falling out with Dave Stewart and that Dombrowski left years ago to run the Phillies?
@iAmNickWize@inkandwater8415 The Bucs are doing it cheap. It should be a brand new stadium. The price is on the low side if you look at recent renovations
@JPPetersonshow@JWMediaDC@tadowsean@CityofTampa@RaysBaseball JP you are either financially illiterate or willfully misleading people. Unless they are putting a theme park on that development, the Rays are spending nowhere near $10B on that property.
