Tropicana Field, home of the Tampa Bay Rays, faces a uncertain future after Hurricane Milton damaged the stadium beyond repairability for the 2025 season. A report from the City of St. Petersburg estimates repairs at $55.7 million and completion in 2026, but the city's insurance claim may not cover costs due to a $22 million deductible.

The Rays had planned to build a new $1.3 billion stadium by 2028, but funding is now in question due to pressing municipal needs from hurricane damage. The team has explored alternative spring training ballparks, but the future of both Tropicana Field and the new venue remains uncertain.
