AFAIK the only reason would be because their lease is coming up for renewal, but is that it? If so, that is a minor problem, as both the city of St Lou and the team need one another at this point..
They've had problems with a lack of corporate sponsors and declining ticket sales in the last few years. Even in their peak years, they didn't get a lot of support. St. Louis is a baseball town. I believe they are also under new ownership or for sale.
