Rattlers move to new stadium Oriole Park at Camden Yards
Let the balance of power continue to move to the AL East ballparks. Chicago will call Fenway Park home beginning with the the 2017 season.
Is the AL East known for offense or pitching? I guess we will see. Let the games begin.

I just hope Kyle get's an air conditioned box seat.
Those hot, humid KC nights. Will be a certain change from the "Dry Heat" of the desert.
Cutthroats are going to make Dodger Stadium home.
In early May one year it was 83 degrees but 90% humidity. By the 7th inning stretch I wanted to die.
The final results
Cutthroats Dodger Stadium
Rum Runners Fenway Park
Asterisks Kauffman Stadium
Rattlers Oriole Park at Camden Yards
I thought long and hard about moving to Dodger Stadium, for obvious, homerish reasons. But DS is where triples go to die, and I love the triple! I actually look for offensive players with more than 2 or 3 triples, because they also tend to be line-drive guys with speed and OBP, a huge factor in how I build my teams. While the nostalgia of having DS as my home park was a strong pull, I had to go with Kauffman, because the park factors are just too perfect for me to pass up.
And yes, I have secured a box seat right under Kauffman's new freshly minted "Vin Scully Honorary Booth," baby!
