It’s sounding more and more like there’s very little hope for a new minor league baseball stadium in downtown Nashville.  Well, at least under the current group that owns the Sounds.

Mayor Karl Dean says the Nashville Sounds will have to show a commitment to invest in their own ballpark and to get the project done before the city will agree to provide them a place to build it.

In an interview Wednesday, he expressed skepticism that the Sounds could complete a deal and said the team might have missed its best shot after a plan for a new stadium downtown collapsed last year.
