■ Places to play: A downtown ballpark that opened in 2014 has topped minor league baseball in average attendance in each of its first three seasons. With a capacity of 10,200 and little space in its footprint to expand, it’s an unlikely option for a big league club. There hasn’t been substantive discussion of other possibilities — yet — but in the last decade the city built an arena to recapture its NBA slot, erected a minor league park near the center of its downtown district and put $75 million of public money into stadium renovations for the Panthers. So don’t rule out movement if the opportunity arises in baseball or MLS. An old football stadium at the edge of downtown could yield the right footprint for an MLS project.
