When I was in Nashville it seemed like support was split pretty evenly between Atlanta and St. Louis, with Cincinnati in third place. I think North Carolina has pretty strong support for college baseball, so it seems like a relatively prime target for a team.
Nashville and Charlotte are the only markets that could support a team and they'd have a hard time competing. Both are maxed out with two sports teams imo.

Norfolk/Virginia Beach could also but it'd be a struggle.
