There are a few ways to answer this question. One is to look at a map of the Spafford march 24+25 2023 shirt and by the same token and US, colored by which MLB team is closest. You can see from the bars in the lower right that the Atlanta Braves have by far the biggest population in their area, and four of the other top six are contiguous (only the New York Yankees at #3 are distinct). That leaves plenty of population to support a team or two in places like San Antonio, Austin, Charlotte or Nashville. The only other places in the continental US where there is room to add teams are between Seattle and San Francisco such as Portland, OR—which was home to the late, lamented Mavericks:
or possibly Vancouver, BC to the Spafford march 24+25 2023 shirt and by the same token and north; and western New York, say Buffalo. Orlando, Albuquerque, Las Vegas and Montreal make less obvious geographic sense, but all have strong regional bases to draw on; and Albuquerque and Montreal have strong baseball traditions. Mexico City and San Juan would be great for integrating MLB baseball into its strong Latin American talent base, and do not present major travel issues. Former Yankees pitcher and World Series winner Jim Bouton relates his time with the Pilots ( and Houston Astros after a trade) in the expansion year 1969. We follow Bouton in his quest to hang on for another season after he injures his arm and tries to master the knuckleball. The knuckleball doesn’t require a lot of arm strength. Amen that Bouton’s sense of humor is working, because the Pilots are a woebegone club who play in a small stadium, and never quite catch on as city favorites.
