You can’t throw out a Field of Dreams reference and then wholly neglect that area of the US when considering MLB expansion. Sure, the farm area north of Iowa City will get a ton of hype in 2020, with the White Sox and Yankees set to play on the fabled field with the corn wall. But there should be equal shine placed on the fact that the MLB isn’t available in much of the area.

While most markets in Iowa are too small for sole consideration, the idea of a conglomerate shouldn’t come off as insane. And, Omaha/Lincoln would be a great fit. There’s money there for funding, and the market, complemented with Des Moines just two hours away, could be attractive enough that…yep…if you build it…they will come.
