What A Mess

Alot has happened in Dodger world since my last post and not much of it has been focused on the field. Major League Baseball taking over the day-to-day operations of the Dodgers would have to top the list. Commissioner Bud Selig's concern was whether the Dodgers could function on a daily basis with Frank McCourt in charge. This almost immediately followed an announcement that Frank McCourt had been given a $30 million loan just to make payroll for the month.

It looks like the divorce between Frank McCourt and Major League Baseball is going to end up in court as well and it may even be uglier than his matrimonial divorce. It seems that a closed door meeting was held between Frank McCourt and Major League Baseball and Frank McCourt decided to take his cause up with the members of the press which has always been a baseball no-no.

From the reports I have read, it seems that former Dodger great Steve Garvey is trying to put together a group to buy the team and that has to be better than it is now. What is going on now is bad for baseball and bad for the Dodgers.
