Arizona Governor Says State Is<br />Willing to Host All MLB Teams On April 14, Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey revealed<br />that the state was very “open-minded” to hosting<br />the 2020 Major League Baseball season. Phoenix, Arizona, was reportedly already<br />among the “contingency plans” being discussed<br />by MLB and the player’s association, making<br />Ducey’s offer even more appealing. According to Ducey, the move to begin MLB in the state<br />would have to be made at “the right time” in terms<br />of being “appropriate for public health.” Governor Doug Ducey,<br />via ESPN Ducey’s hosting offer includes not only<br />all the necessary facilities for the season,<br />but also housing for all 30 MLB teams. 10 spring training parks, several<br />college facilities and the Arizona<br />Diamondbacks’ Chase Field would<br />be available for use by MLB. In terms of housing, Ducey said the city<br />has “hotel space” available, although <br />“the metrics and the data” would have to be<br />confirmed before moving forward.
