They still have to go through the county commission and committees and public meetings and the city comission and my great-aunt's sisiter-in-law and the guy down the street, but it seems a new ballpark is getting at least slightly closer to reality.
County Manager George Burgess said "that the county was in deep negotiations with the Marlins that must be completed in the next few weeks if the team hopes to play in a new stadium by opening day 2011."
Burgess says "there have to be absolute guarantees" on MLB staying and on the Marlins covering cost overruns, but the Marlins haven't yet guaranteed that they'll even put up the same amount of money that they offered for the Downtown site. (SunSentinel)(MiamiHerald)
