    I believe it goes to the team that puts the most money in the pocket of Clueless Bud Selig.

    Pretty much.

    If you build a new stadium, that guarantees you one.

    I assume they have a committee that decides.

    Generally they rotate AL and NL parks annually (but there are a few exceptions). Also, teams that recently have new stadiums or have not hosted in say two decades or more definetly get priority. I mean there are 30 teams/stadiums to choose from after all.

    PS: For 2009 my bet is on the new Senators (sorry, Nationals) stadium that opens this year.
