Question:What are they trying to accomplish. they couldn't sell out games there either.

Best outfielder in the Major Leagues?
I live down here and from what has been said, the Rays have an extreme attendance problem. First of all they play in St. Pete. The Stadium is so far out of the way that it's a real inconvenience to go to a game. The Yankees spring training games right in the heart of Tampa draw more people than the Rays do during the regular season.Disney is just outside Orlando and the word is that they are testing the market to see if the Rays might do better if they move. Personally I think it's a great idea. There is plenty of open space in the Orange and Lake County area to build a ball park and from what I see, they would have no problem bringing in the fans. Not necessarily Rays fans but baseball fans in general.

I guess its there because people go there regularly. And if your fav team is there maybe there thinking ull see themWhy will or wont the NY mets win the world series in 2007?
To try to show that they're a regional team, not a one-city team.The mid-May series is the culmination of months of work and cooperation between the Rays organization and the Rangers, the Commissioner's Office and the Players Association. Tampa Bay first extended its fanbase south toward its soon-to-be Spring Training home in Port Charlotte, and now is making an effort to stretch the zone westward as well.

Mainly because people actually GO to Disney World. Ever watch a D-Ray home game? I can fit the entire average attendance in my back yard.cause the stadium will only hold 9600, so they want it to look like a sell out
Who are your chosen "Best 9" in MLB?
They are trying to expand their exposure and fan base, and win fans outside of the Tampa/St. Pete area.Who signed 1st 100 million dollar contract?
They think they're good.Actually, the attendance was really low in Tampa. Out of the ten lowest attended games this year, nine were in Tampa. So they decided they would play a few games at the Wide World of Sports Complex to help lure more fans.

maybe they can actually win some games if they play somewhere elsePlaying outdoors is the way real baseball is supposed to be played. They're also likely to draw bigger crowds. And Disney will probably kick in some cash too!
