Oakland Athletics Discretely Reach Out to Las Vegas To See If They Want A Baseball Team

After rumors circulated around the MLB owners’ lunch table last Friday, it has been confirmed that the Oakland Athletics discretely asked the city of Las Vegas if they wanted to buy them.

The A’s, who have been eyeing Vegas from a distance ever since Vegas blossomed into a mature city willing to mingle with sports franchises, passed a note to the Rockies to pass along to Vegas at their locker in between games.

“They’d been crushing hard on Vegas for a while. Everybody could tell because of how uncomfortable and giggly owner John Fisher would get whenever asked which city’s skylines he liked,” stated a representative from Vegas’ bestie squad, Reno.

Although originally dismissed as just gossip, the Colorado Rockies told the Dodgers who heard it from the Diamondbacks that the A’s thought Vegas’ Snap Story was “fire.”

Sources reported it took the A’s two weeks to muster up the courage to court Vegas and only then did so when double-dog dared by the Yankees, whose FBO BAE has been New York since at least the third grade.

“Lowkey, you just gotta read the writing on the origami paper fortune teller and be emotionally honest, fam. Will it hurt Oakland if they find out? Probably. But it’s better to rip the Band-Aid off before things get too serious,” said Hal Steinbrenner.

Vegas is expected to return the note next weekend at the Seven Innings in Heaven party in the dope-ass basement of Oracle Park, where a bunch of teams will likely get to second base.
