Though Major League Baseball hasn’t yet issued a decision on the relocation of
the Oakland Athletics to Las Vegas, team president Dave Kaval said Tuesday the f
ranchise is working toward securing the more than $1 billion in private financin
g needed for the construction of its planned $1.5 billion Las Vegas Strip ballpa
rk.
雖然大聯盟還沒正式通過綠帽的搬家
但根據球團總裁Dave Kaval的說法，他們已經開始在籌錢了
他們需要弄到超過10億鎂私人$$$來蓋它們的15億鎂新球場
Kaval said the family of A’s owner John Fisher would “make one of the largest
equity contributions” ever by a major league owner toward the cost of building
a new ballpark. The commitment through private funding streams would be second o
nly to the private money used for Yankee Stadium, which opened in 2009.
綠帽老闆John Fisher自然會出其中的一大筆
將成為大聯盟老闆私人出資第二多的一座球場
僅次於新洋基球場
Nevada lawmakers and Gov. Joe Lombardo approved up to $380 million in public fin
ancing on June 15 to fund a portion of the stadium construction. The package inc
ludes up to $180 million in transferable tax credits from the state (which the t
eam could sell to other businesses for cash), an estimated $120 million in Clark
County bonds and a $25 million credit from the county for infrastructure needs
around the stadium.
當地政府補助380M
Yankee Stadium, which replaced the aging ballpark of the same name, opened in th
e Bronx, New York, in 2009. The venue cost more than $2.3 billion and was funded
in part by $670.6 million from the Yankees' ownership. The remaining $1.2 billi
on came from public money and tax breaks.
做為比對，2009年落成的新洋基球場耗資23億美金
其中洋基出了6.706億鎂
Neil deMause, the author of Field of Schemes, a book about public subsidies for
stadiums and the name of a companion website for sports stadium news and analysi
s, said other than Yankee Stadium, no other baseball stadium has cost anywhere c
lose to $1.5 billion.
除了新洋基球場，大聯盟其他球場造價沒有一個靠近15億鎂這數字
所以綠帽這球場蠻貴的XD

球團總裁Dave Kaval也表示
當初豆爺會搞魔球是因為他們沒$$$$
但來到拉斯維加斯後
他們就有資源去競爭高價FA球員了
