Unlike this season when the Montreal Expos played twenty-five percent of their home games in San Juan, Puerto Rico, the players vote to play their entire 2004 home schedule in Montreal. The major league owners, who collectively own the franchise, have been considering moving the Expos permanently to Washington D.C., Portland, Oregon or Monterrey, Mexico, or continuing the present format by having the team split home games between different locations. The players’ vote will have no effect, as the team will once again play a number of home games in Puerto Rico in 2004, before moving permanently to Washington in 2005.
