I believe there has been a lot of talk on that subject, most recently San Juan, Puerto Rico was a serious contender for the Expos franchise but MLB decided on DC.I believe Mexico will be a great market and Puerto Rico filled the ball parks for every game the Expos played there 2 years ago. I would love to see that we Latinos are well represented in MLB and in my opinion Mexico and Puerto Rico would be front runners in that quest.Great Question !!!!!!

No too much travel and i would think that few players would be willing to move that far away from their families. The MLB could definitely get quite a crowd in Mexico and the Caribbean but i don't think it would be that feasible. I would want a couple more teams within the U.S. before we began to move teams to these areas.

Yes, the MLB should expand into the Carribean countries like Dominican Republic, Puerto Rica, Columbia, and other coutries. Those soutries will show the cry babies in the US how baseball should be played...with passion and love...two thing most of the American players do not show. The hispanic players play for the love of the game and not of the money. And for the stupid people up there who say that it should say in the US should watch the passion that the hispanic players bring like Jose Reyes, Albert Pujos, Ivan Rodriguez and all the other players.

No more expansion, too many teams already. Baseball has proven they are unable to pick the right places to put teams. They need to concentrate on returning some integrity to the game instead of expanding it.

No, and we should get out of Toronto Canada, too. Make teams
in Nashville and New Orleans with Milwaukee Brewer moving to
one and Blue Jays to other. Make 3 leagues of 10 teams each
League.

Well not exactly expand but they could move the Padres to Mexico or the Marlins to Santo Domingo or San Juan.

yeah i think it would make for some interesting baseball and if canada can have a baseball team then i don't see why other countries can't either the only thing is the traveling could be a problem

the travel would cost too much and besides i dont think the majority of baseball fans in these countries could afford the prices that major league baseball wants to charge

No, it's bad enough we're in Canada. Baseball is America's favorite pastime. Let's keep MLB in America!

no.travel is already difficult on the teams this would just make it worse.plus if they play in mexico you know a bunch of mexicans will try to sneak in to the US stuffed inside the teams equipment bags.lol
