Maricopa's new agreement allows them to leave by 2022 if they chose too which is not realistic to get a new stadium built. But they can have a new one ready by 2023 or 2024. Either way, I agree. They need to stay Downtown and I think the attendance will not be as good way out by Talking Stick. Filling a 11,000 seat spring training facility is not the same as filling 27,000+ regular season games.
