June 5, 20251 yr The one note that causes me concern was the statement in the release that the Sox said there's no assurance any such transaction will occur.

June 5, 20251 yr Hopefully the Ishbias can spend some payroll money while we are waiting for them to take over.

I'm guessing it will be more along the lines of what the release said, "capital investments" aka money for a new stadium (and I'm guessing it will be a lot more than the 200 million JR is supposedly willing to contribute...)
June 5, 20251 yr It's also pretty safe to say that this puts Michigan alum Chris Getz on the hottest of hot seats.

This fits with the notion that Jerry just doesn't want to give up control. I'm just glad there is a succession plan in place that doesn't involve the Reinsdorfs. In 2034, he'll be 98 years old.
