 Spring Training 2006: Florida Marlins
Roger Dean Stadium is one of the newer stadiums in the Grapefruit League -- it opened in February 1998 -- and the total capacity is 7,000: 6,400 in box seats, bleachers and skyboxes, up to 300 on a party deck, and 300 in berm seating.

 Spring Training 2006: Baltimore Orioles
Fort Lauderdale Stadium is not regarded as one of the gems of the Grapefruit League, despite its status as one of the older stadiums still in use.
Not that any tears will be shed by Fort Lauderdale baseball fans: Fort Lauderdale Stadium is not old enough to be a classic stadium, and architecturally it's not distinguished enough to be considered interesting enough to be worth saving should a new complex be built for the Orioles.
And the Orioles have not been using Fort Lauderdale Stadium long enough to be identified with the stadium -- Fort Lauderdale Stadium was previously the spring-training of the New York Yankees, and many fans still associate the glory days of the Yankees in the 1960s with the relaxed atmosphere of Fort Lauderdale.

I propose we build the new multiuse stadium between Chandler Boulevard and Pecos Road on the 620 acres of state trust land.
The multiuse stadium was sold as an asset for the entire state, so this would give Gov. Jane Hull the chance to order State Land Commissioner Mike Anable to turn the land over to the stadium district folks.
Obviously 620 acres is a lot for a multiuse stadium, so I also propose that some upscale builder put up tall, 10-story condominiums.
