In a reversal of an announcement last month, the Orem Owlz (Rookie, Pioneer League) will not relocate to Pueblo (CO) by the 2020 season — or at all, Owlz owner Jeff Katofsky announced Monday in conjunction with a ruling from the Pueblo County government. Read more here. More details here from the Chieftain. Read about the communication leading up to the decision here and here.

We are planning on moving to Colorado next year. This takes Pueblo off the list.
If not Pueblo or Pueblo area, there are not a lot of options in Colorado except for north of Denver. I haven’t looked closely, so I don’t know if great places like the Fort Collins/Loveland/Greeley area would be in MLB territory or not. I get the impression there is some gamesmanship going on here with Pueblo because of frustration (understandable, as the city has on-again, off-again flirted with pro ball for many years). Will the parties come back to the table? We’ll be watching closely.
