I hope to see it happen. Bringing the Orioles to Tucson for Spring Training, along with perhaps the Milwaukee Brewers, would ensure baseball would be played in The Old Pueblo for many years to come. Tucson is clearly a better city and metro area than Phoenix as it is easier to get around in, more scenic, less congested, and more fitting.All this being said, it still looks to be a longshot for the Orioles to leave Florida, and for the other two Cactus League clubs to still be playing games in Pima County by 2011 or 2012.
