He opposed the relocation of the Washington Nationals (formerly the Montreal Expos) to Washington D.C. due to concerns about a reduced share of fan revenue affecting the ability of the Orioles to compete with the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox. Major League Baseball compensated Angelos by establishing a minimum sales price floor for the Orioles.
