The problem you have with Vancouver is that they don't even have full-season baseball. Their MiLB team, the Canadians, is Short Season-A. While they DO lead the Northwest League in attendance, they'd need a stadium better than Nat Bailey and I'd like to see how they do at the full season level once again.
Well that's the crux of it. No stadium it's all moot anyway. I do think any city willing to talk about a stadium becomes a front runner. Baseball teams require specialized stadiums you can't exactly use for anything else. If you had an owner and investor for a stadium in Indianapolis they would get a team. More so than Montreal being a good market, they have a temporary venue and investors willing to build a stadium. That makes them not just a front runner, but a guaranteed destination. Any other city that can get those things is instantly in the same position.
