Tampa should be Triple-A

Look, I'm saying it.

Exposed
The size of Tampa's TV market is the only thing saving its stay in MLB,... or sludging the talks along anyway.  It'd probably be better in Orlando.  They could play in both places and be the Florida Coastals, though I'd prefer one team at this time in Florida..... the Florida Marlins.

Be the Expos Triple-A town with a sexier distraction of a ballyard.  Hate me all you want.
  Any better unconventional ideas?

Ottawa thinking ahead...

ballparkdigest.com/2019/08/02/should-ottawa-plan-for-mlbs-potential-montreal-return

...for the return of sole Montreal ball and a corresponding Triple-A affiliate.

They play in a ballpark that opened up in 1993 for what was their Triple-A team.  They lasted until 2007, and were Montreal affiliated up to 2002.  If you remember, '93 was the Marlins and Rockies inaugarals.

Bullshitting around, I like a name like the Ottawa Diamonds.  It reminds me of Ice.  But I'm certainly for something crazier, unconventional and with less decorum.  Like what?
