Baseball Comes Cap in Hand to Atlanta
Major League Baseball is implicitly making amends to Atlanta with Tuesday's All-Star Game after moving the 2021 game in protest of Georgia election reforms. It's about time. In 2021 Georgia passed the Election Integrity Act, a package of common-sense measures to improve the voting process. The act expanded in-person early voting and codified the use of drop boxes for absentee ballots while limiting their number and establishing security rules. It shortened the absentee-ballot request period from six months to 11 weeks. It maintained the 29-day voter-registration period before an election—the amount of time before an election that voters must be registered to vote—the same or longer than 12 other states. It allowed people to bring food and water with them to their polling stations and take water from unattended receptacles. It set clear requirements for identification. It banned 'ballot harvesting,' in which people other than the voters themselves gather and submit absentee or mail-in ballots.

Sale of Rays expected to be final by September, team likely to stay in Tampa area: Source
ATLANTA — The sale of the Tampa Bay Rays from current owner Stu Sternberg to a group led by Jacksonville developer Patrick Zalupski for about $1.7 billion has been agreed to in principle and is expected to be completed as soon as September, a person briefed on the process who was not authorized to speak publicly told The Athletic on Monday. Advertisement Zalupski is expected to keep the team in the Tampa Bay area, with a strong preference to be in Tampa rather than St. Petersburg, the source said. Sternberg bought the team for $200 million in 2004. Neither the Rays nor Zalpuski's group could immediately be reached for comment. Sportico reported in June that Zalupski's group was in advanced talks to buy the team and had signed a letter of intent. The Rays last month said in a statement that they were in exclusive talks with Zalupski's group, which includes Bill Cosgrove and Ken Babby. Zalupski is the founder of Dream Finders Homes, while Cosgrove runs Ohio-based Union Home Mortgage. Babby owns a pair of minor-league teams, the Akron RubberDucks and the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp. As of last month, other bidders were still hopeful of landing the team, including a group led by Memphis hedge fund founder Trip Miller. The sale could hasten a conclusion to the Rays' long-running search for a new stadium. For two decades, Sternberg has tried to find a new home for the Rays other than Tropicana Field, which was built in 1990. But several iterations fell through, including a unique plan that would have had the team split time between Florida and Montreal. This spring, The Athletic reported that Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred and some owners were pressing Sternberg to sell. Sternberg's most recent plan, to build a new stadium in St. Petersburg where the team currently plays, was derailed after Hurricane Milton ravaged the area in the fall. The hurricane significantly damaged Tropicana Field, forcing the Rays to play this regular season at Steinbrenner Field, the New York Yankees' spring training facility and home of the minor league Tampa Tarpons. A fight over public funding for a new stadium also ensued, and an agreed-upon $1.3 billion deal to build a new park in St. Petersburg went by the wayside this spring. Advertisement Manfred said last month he was hopeful that the Rays could return to Tropicana Field for the 2026 season. 'The repair of the stadium is moving along,' Manfred said at the time. 'We remain optimistic that we will be ready either for Opening Day or very shortly thereafter. Obviously, the big contingency is what happens with hurricane season, right? There's not much you can do about that, other than keep your fingers crossed. But we are hopeful that we'll get it ready for Opening Day '26.'

Teams On Bubble Reportedly Have Executives Preparing For Snail-Paced Market
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. The MLB season has arrived at the All-Star Break, one of the final checkpoints for teams to know where they stand in the league and if they are going to be able to compete for a playoff spot. According to Katie Woo and Patrick Mooney of The Athletic, executives are preparing for a deadline that develops slowly due to multiple teams treading water in the playoff race. CINCINNATI, OHIO - JULY 09: Sandy Alcantara #22 of the Miami Marlins looks on during a baseball game against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park on July 09, 2025 in Cincinnati, Ohio. CINCINNATI, OHIO - JULY 09: Sandy Alcantara #22 of the Miami Marlins looks on during a baseball game against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park on July 09, 2025 in Cincinnati, Ohio. Photo byTeams like the Texas Rangers and Kansas City Royals are not out of the hunt just yet, and a couple of strong weeks could flip their direction at the trade deadline. For the Royals, this could mean that holding on to starting pitcher Seth Lugo is in the cards if they set themselves up to take a wild-card spot in the final two months. This could have side effects for some of the more well-known trade candidates like Sandy Alcantara and the Miami Marlins. A slow deadline could alter the packages teams are willing to send for the former National League Cy Young winner. It could raise his price as teams on the bubble wait it out, and there is an uncertainty clouding their availability. "The (St. Louis) Cardinals can be a linchpin for a lot of teams," one executive said in the report on The Athletic. "They have a lot of players teams are interested in." The Cardinals are one of the teams on the bubble. While stars like Willson Contreras and Nolan Arenado hold no-trade clauses, there are other pieces on their roster, like closer Ryan Helsley, who is set to be a free agent this winter, that teams would be interested in. This deadline might move slowly to start, but once teams see the packages they could get in return -- or if they have a bad stretch -- we could be in for an exciting deadline day.
