Expos to stay put, await better payola?
It's looking increasingly likely that the Montreal Expos, rumored to be entering their final season every year since 1999, will stay put yet again for 2004. Asked if the Expos would definitely be moved following this season, MLB commish Bud Selig replied: "Ask me that later this year." The Washington Times speculates that MLB could be waiting for better economic conditions that would facilitate public stadium subsidies, noting: "The voter appetite for supporting public sector dollars for sports facilities is near an all-time low."
