Current problems with the Bakersfield and High Desert franchises (and/or their stadiums)...
The stadium situations, particularly as regards the latter (which is the Rangers' affiliate), rather than improving seems to be devolving. The city of Adelanto, which is in financial straits and is responsible for many of the stadium operating costs, has
instituted eviction proceedings against the High Desert Mavericks. Lawsuits are flying of course and the situation is ugly enough that contingency plans involving the Mavericks playing all their games on the road apparently are being discussed.
The Bakersfield situation with its 75-year old stadium remains unresolved as well.
