Selig

[Ceetar]

do we really think it's 'good for the Wilpons'? I can't see a new commissioner coming in and trying to boot an owner like that. I imagine the other 29 wouldn't look too kindly on that.

edit: especially given that they're apparently no longer in debt to MLB and are able to pay their players.


I think it might be more so that this last agreement introduced so many new changes that are still in flux, and it makes sense to have him see it through.

The problem is that Selig can count on the support of the Wilpons for all the stoopit things he encourages (draft slotting, extra playoffs, hiring Tony Bernazard). It's not up to the commissioner if the banks come looking for their $$.

No, but it's up to the commissioner if the MLB bank comes looking for its money. The Mets are already late on two loans with them, right?

Bud Selig can't hear you.
