The Arizona Diamondbacks take the field at Chase Field in Phoenix in 2017.

The Arizona Diamondbacks are allowed to look for a new place to play after they reached an agreement with Maricopa County.

There’s been speculation about the team’s future at Chase Field ever since it sued the county over repairs and improvements in the stadium. The agreement ends that lawsuit.

Paul Steinbach, senior editor of Athletic Business Magazine, joined The Show to talk about what kinds of things teams are looking for in new ballparks.
