Spring training: D'backs president would like 4 teams in TucsonArizona Daily Star
Tucson, Arizona | Published: 02.18.2009
The Arizona Diamondbacks acknowledge they have talked with Casa Grande about moving spring training sites and would prefer having three other teams in Tucson for better competition.
D'backs president and CEO Derrick Hall spoke this morning near Tucson Electric Park as the team had its first full-squad workout.
"If you had your preference you'd either have four teams here in Tucson, where you can draw from the fan base here, or have a one- or two-team complex up in the Valley where you can draw from your fan base there," Hall said.
Currently, the Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies hold spring training in Tucson. Arizona's lease at Tucson Electric Park expires in 2012.
Opening day is Feb. 25.
