The biggest problem with the proposed baseball stadium is not where it's going to be built but why it isn't being built as a multipurpose venue like MCI Center.

Building an old-fashioned, open-air baseball stadium in the 21st century is stupid. The economic conditions warrant -- indeed, demand -- a multipurpose venue to create a regular flow of events to shore up development of the area.

As planned, what are the shops, restaurants and other businesses supporting the stadium going to do between November and March?
