Well, Lookie Here

Seems rumor is becoming reality:

  • They’re screaming in delight as they dance in the streets of Bridgeport, Hyde Park and Hegewisch. They’re shouting praises to the heavens in Homewood, South Holland and Calumet City. They’re hooting and hollering and making plans for ceremonial burnings of their “SELL THE TEAM” signs when the baseball gods at last deliver them from the ownership of Jerry Reinsdorf.

    Is Reinsdorf really going to sell the Sox? Can it be?

    The 88-year-old chairman is in discussions with a group led by former major league pitcher Dave Stewart, the Sun-Times confirmed. Word of this spread instantly through Soxdom on Wednesday, the first sign of excitement those parts have seen since the 2021 postseason.

And Dave Stewart's group is in negotiations to bring a MLB franchise to Nashville. Or Oakland.

But as the article also states, this could be a ploy by Reinsdorf to leverage another new stadium out of taxpayers.
