While it's by no means plan A or a certainty it appears the A's are exploring as a backup plan moving Cisco Field from it's current planned location at Pacific Commons over to Warm Springs near the planned Warm Springs BART station. As I recall this wouldn't be far from one of the original locations HOK sport was exploring for Alameda County back in the late 90's. Additionally if they did in fact fall back on the Warm Springs "Plan B" the stadium would be decoupled from Wolff's residential project, or so it seems.

Don't read too much into it...
The CEQA requires that, in the EIR, the planner consider alternatives to their desired plan. It’s really just to try to make the planner consider other possibilities – ones that might have less of an impact.
For example, in Cal’s SAHPC / Memorial Stadium EIR, one of the “alternatives” included building a stadium out by Golden Gate Fields – something I don’t think Cal would have ever seriously considered actually doing.

In addition to a "no action" alternative.
That doesn’t mean that they’re seriously considering not doing the project, either. It’s just part of the NEPA process.

Though that likely could be the most likely alternative ...
