Selig: Dodgers are in good hands

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 17:52:55 +0000

Sporting News staff reports Speaking in Chicago at the MLB owners meetings, commissioner Bud Selig told the Los Angeles Times that the Dodgers "are in good hands." Because of the pending divorce between team owners Frank McCourt and Jamie McCourt, there is speculation about the future of the franchise. A similar situation occurred with the San Diego Padres recently, when owners John Moores and Becky Moores divorced. The team eventually was sold, though it stayed in San Diego. "There's no reason to get into any debate about what's going to happen," Selig told the newspaper. "The Dodgers will be in Los Angeles for as long as we're alive and for many generations to come." The newspaper reported the divorce proceedings aren't expected to affect the Dodgers' offseason spending, as the team wasn't expected to raise its payroll anyway.
