ATLANTA -- The Atlanta Braves announced this morning that they plan to move to Cobb County in 2017.
According to published report, the team is set to leave Turner Field after their 20 year agreement expires at the end of the 2016 season.
The team says they plan to build a new stadium on the northwest corner of the Interstate 75-285 interchange in Cobb County.
"We are excited to announce plans to build a world-class stadium, which will open in 2017 at the NW intersection of I-75/I-285," the team said in tweets. "We have secured a large tract of property at this location & will work to build a world-class ballpark for our fans."

Sweet, I might be able to go to more games now instead of 3-4 a year.

Great. Let's continue to ignore the southern part of the city and let it fall into disrepair. This is a brilliant idea.

It's nice they're moving it out of the hood, but as a person who lived in that general vicinity, I would have been colossally pissed about having that traffic-inducing monstrosity plopped near my house.
It also means the area surrounding the Ted will probably fall into further disrepair. I was hoping they'd keep it downtown and just clean up the area. I get why they would want to bolt, though.
But as a foreigner I don't really have a say in the matter.
