The Athletics' franchise value has increased as the team's Las Vegas ballpark continues to rise. The latest valuation, compiled by CNBC's lead sports reporter Mike Ozanian, came in at $2.5 billion, a $500 million increase from their $2 billion valuation the previous year. The A's $2bn Las Vegas stadium is set to open in 2028. The team's valuation will continue to rise as the realization of the Las Vegas A's comes to fruition. The Oakland Raiders saw a similar value-wise transition when they relocated from Oakland to Las Vegas in 2020. However, upcoming MLB labor and television deals could affect the team valuation. The current collective bargaining agreement expires in December and could affect how much each team valuations will rise in the next year.
