True. I was just thinking in terms of distance from Toronto since they would use it as a year-round facility.

I remember the days when the Brewers were in Sun City. Ironically, I'm now in Sun City...although my Sun City is about an hour and a half away from the original Sun City.
The stadium itself isn't anywhere close to being a hellhole.

The surrounding area, yes, is pretty bad.

There is close proximity for the teams to other spring training sites. The teams do not have to go more than 30 mins to Peoria, Glendale, Goodyear, or Maryvale. The West valley has a pretty good corridor happening/developing.
