MLB fans angered at Oakland A's potentially scouting for new stadium sites in Vegas despite previous agreement: "I don’t like the way this smells"

Three weeks ago, the Oakland A's made headlines when they signed a &quot;binding agreement&quot; on a 49-acre site for a new $1.5 billion baseball stadium. However, recent reports suggest that the team is exploring other options, including potential back-up plans in Southern Nevada.Sources also stated that the Oakland A's are still looking forward to obtaining the Wild West Casino site which they got for a price that has not been revealed, for the 35,000-seat retractable roof stadium and a surrounding entertainment district.The Nevada Independent, a non-profit news outlet, tweeted about the Oakland A's scouting for a different stadium site in Vegas just weeks after finalizing the deed for the first one.

(Photo by Alex Bierens de Haan/Getty Images)With fans taking to protests against the ownership of John Fisher, Oakland Athletics is struggling to keep it together as a team. The team has already lost the most number of matches possible in a single year, and with their lease at the Coliseum ending in 2024, the future is uncertain.It remains to be seen if the A's will indeed move to Vegas, as there are concerns about a lack of investors and rumors that Fisher may only be looking to sell the team for a higher price.While the Oakland A's initially seemed to have a clear plan for their new stadium, recent developments suggest that things may not be as straightforward as they appeared. Fans are understandably frustrated with Fisher's management and the team's uncertain future.
