Spring training in Arizona is way better than Florida spring training. Agree?

Yeah I know the Yanks or the Red Sox don't train in Arizona, but really, its so much nicer. Most of the stadiums are relatively new, and now that all the teams that train in Arizona will all pretty much be in the Phoenix metropolitan area this upcoming spring, it must be nice for the longest bus ride for players will be roughly 40 minutes across town. Arizona weather is beautiful in spring time. I've been to both Arizona and Florida for spring training, and by far, Arizona is way better.



Your opinions?Spring training in Arizona is way better than Florida spring training. Agree?
They both have their good points. Arizona has nice/newer stadiums and not having to deal with humidity is a plus, but the teams that I follow are still in Florida. Also, the rest of the time that I'm not actually attending games I would rather be in Florida to enjoy the other attractions there.Spring training in Arizona is way better than Florida spring training. Agree?
I've been to some spring games in both states. The Grapefruit League is a more fun "in person" experience, IMO, and more of my favorite teams play in Fla. The Cactus League has some advantages as well, but I enjoy being a tourist in Florida during March than I do in Arizona.



Your point about the facilities being newer and closer together is a legitimate point, however.Spring training in Arizona is way better than Florida spring training. Agree?
I don't know, I've only been to Spring Training games in Florida. I've been to 1 or 2 of the Arizona Spring Training stadiums, but, I've never seen any games there.
My favorite team, the Yankees, train in Florida, so obviously I would prefer that.
