MLB Expansion Team for Northern California After A's Departure?

With the Oakland Athletics potentially leaving the Bay Area, there is speculation about the possibility of a Northern California expansion team in Major League Baseball. San Jose and Sacramento are among the potential locations, but territorial rights held by the San Francisco Giants could complicate matters. However, former A's owner Lew Wolff believes that the Giants' territorial rights could be overturned with 75% approval from MLB owners. The A's are currently in the process of purchasing the county's share of the Coliseum property, which could be leveled and replaced with a new ballpark for an expansion team.
