Mark Kotsay is focusing on the Oakland Athletics' current season, not on the team's long-term location.

"I'm managing this team and I don't have control of those decisions," he said Friday, two days after the team said it purchased land in Las Vegas with the intention of building a ballpark there for the 2027 season. "My focus is on getting this team better, improving from the maturation of these young players and winning as many games as possible."
