The idea of expanding baseball to additional cities has been a topic that pops up a couple of times a year. Therefore, the question comes to mind. Who should the Royals protect if an Expansion Draft were to happen?
It never fails, sports always expands. Whether it be to a new city or a team returning to a city that once had a team. For baseball, Montreal has come up a few times for an expansion team and I’m sure other cities would like to have a team as well.
