Angels have a third option in their stadium search
The Angels will be playing at Angel Stadium in Anaheim at least through the 2020 season. At Tuesday’s Anaheim City Council meeting, Moreno said the one-year lease extension the council approved in January did not mean the current lease would expire when the extension does. In addition to choosing between a new or renovated stadium in Anaheim or a proposed waterfront ballpark in Long Beach, the Angels could simply play out their current Angel Stadium lease, which extends through 2029. That last option effectively reduces the city’s leverage, since it cannot threaten to kick out the Angels after the 2020 season and sell the stadium property. The Long Beach option presumably would require the Angels to try to negotiate a short-term lease for Angel Stadium while the Long Beach ballpark is built, much as the NFL’s Raiders negotiated a short-term lease to stay in Oakland while their new Las Vegas stadium is completed.
