Frank McCourt, awarded the Dodgers by Bud Selig as a favor to Fox and the Red Sox, appears close to an agreement with MLB to sell the team he nearly destroyed.
McCourt makes Liberty Media look like the O’Malleys — not that Braves fans don’t deserve better than a disinterested, out-of-state conglomerate. And thanks to the McCourt mess, MLB will no doubt be more careful about letting underfunded gold-diggers purchase a franchise. Then again, never overestimate the Used Car Salesman.
Though many in the media tend to have blinders on concerning Bud, it should be remembered that the blame for the Dodgers mess falls squarely on his shoulders.
