They are trying to make some moves but they keep getting outbid by other teams.  They've tried to get Carlos Lee and Gary Mathews Jr, but other teams wanted to pay them way more than they're worth.  There is talk that the Gigantes have been trying to get Dave Roberts and possibly Rich Aurilia, both of which can now be had at an affordable price.

Join the club... I live in Raleigh, but grew up about an hour from the Bronx in an Italian family.  I think I'd be disowned if I ever chose any other team.

More power to them.  LA has not been awarded a team because they (like san Diego) refuse to build a new stadium.  They want a team to share the colesium and that's not even cool..  If Chula wants to build them a stadium, Good for them!

damn thats messed up what that guy said about women. Kevin Brown did play for the dodgers and his seven year contract over 100 million that he signed with them in 97 was the highest contract for a pitcher at that time. that contract revolutionized baseball's economy because it was the beginning of higher price tags for the services of players. anyways kevin brown was dominant for the dodgers when he was healthy but was a big dissapointed since he was on the disabled list with numerous injuries throughout his career with the dodgers. the dodgers traded him to the new york yankees with i believe bubba crosby for jeff weaver and cash, something like that. Brown pitched for the yankees for one or two years and retired.

I remember a Mets pitcher with that last name. In his first appearance in the big leagues, 1973, as a reliever, he walked two batters in a row in the late innings agains the Pirates. This two teams were in  a dog fight  to win the National East. When the manager( Yogui Berra?)  replaced him, he dashed out of there. He became pretty good after that. Sorry, nostalgia.

Los Angeles\n\nIn 1982, Davis moved the team from Oakland to Los Angeles, California and the club became known as the Los Angeles Raiders, but they moved back to Oakland in 1995 being the only sports franchise to move and then come back without making an expansion team.

Unfortunately, with the Royals, the problem runs much deeper than a couple of new ballplayers.\n\nI think that the Royals need a new ownership group, or at the very least, they need a serious infusion of capital in order to compete in the American League.  \n\nThey will never be able to compete with the likes of the Yankees or the Red Sox on a dollar-for-dollar level, but they can invest in their system, and improve their minor-league recruiting and scouting.  \n\nLook at how the Braves have built up their farm system and the quality of young players they've been able to bring up to the big leagues, and they've won how many division titles in a row?  The Dodgers in their heyday of the '70s and '80s were built through their farm system.  It's when they stopped believing in their system and started trying to buy players that they went downhill.

It was actually a combination of low fan support and poor ownership support. Back when the Expos were a decent team they couldn't fill up that abortion of a ballpark called Olympic Stadium. The owners wanted to move for years but were locked into a lease with the stadium, so they quit putting a good team on the field. Some big names have played in Montreal, but were traded or cut loose as soon as they were going to cost any real $$. Finally a few years back MLB had enough and tried to contract the league by getting rid of two teams, Montreal and Minnesota. Minnesota responded by making a run at the world series. The contraction plan was eventually thrown out the window and the other team owners with MLB bought the Expos and operated for at least one year in Montreal until a plan to move them, ultimately to DC, was developed. They finally, this year, had finalized a deal to sell the team to a DC based group.
