Third among Canadian markets, Vancouver is one of those areas that would be a home run for the MLB—if there was enough interest from the two-million-plus metro area. Professional baseball has been part of the city since the 1970s, currently playing home to the Blue Jays’ Class A Short Season team in the minors and could be an excellent addition to the MLB’s expansion. Where adding a city like Montreal, a mere five-hour car ride to Toronto might cause a logjam and dilute the baseball markets, Vancouver’s reach from the west coast would make it more unique.

Seattle might have something to say about this type of idea, of course.
