Incase anyone cares, the Montreal Expos are moving to Washington DC!!

Even though I am not an Expos fan, I still think it is kind of exciting that Washington DC will have a baseball team again!!

LOL... they don't think its 'exciting' in Baltimore. They were bigtime against this deal. Oh well... both cities suck IMO.

I think this is a great move. I would love to see them move to the AL East and become big rivals with Baltimore.

I heard it on the radio earlier this week ... I actually think it's sad when teams move ... but these days with $port$ it'$ all about the $$$$$$$$$

Nah... they will probably just stay in the NL east to make it simple. Any changes would require division realignment for a few teams. Not worth the trouble.

It will make for some good interleague games though.

I'm sure they will keep them in the NL East, but it would be cool if they moved them.

Yeah this will at least give Baltimore something to look forward to in interleague play.

I think MLB made a good choice.

I don't think the DC-Baltimore-Metro area is big enough for two baseball teams.

I think Charlotte would have been a better choice since there really isn't a baseball team anywhere near the NC area.

But they didn't have a willing enough buyer.
