The Marlins didn't actually relocate any more than the California/LA/Anaheim Angels. The Braves left Milwaukee in '65? 50 years.

The Marlins were an expansion team and not a relocation and Atlanta moved from Milwaukee in 1966. 49 years ago.

For classic created roster reasons.

That is a lot of "& only's"!

1. That was not a relocation. 2. It's always good to check your math.

The Marlins moved to Miami (their old stadium was not in Miami). The Atlanta Braves are in the process of moving out of Atlanta. In both cases, the team moved from one location to another. That's exactly what relocation means.

I don't really understand how this is debatable?

Unless by "relocation," Slab meant "relocation to another country."

In that case the Braves also relocated in '97?
