Unlike the vast majority of professional sports teams, the Atlanta Braves are not owned by a wealthy investor. The MLB team is owned by the Liberty Braves Group (NASDAQ:BATRK), a subsidiary of Liberty Media Corporation. As BATRK is a tracker stock, meaning the security only includes Liberty's ownership of the Atlanta Braves and not the company as a whole, it has not gotten the full attention that it deserves. Like Liberty Media, BATRK is led by media billionaire John Malone. For the 2017 season, the Atlanta Braves are getting a new $700 million dollar stadium coupled with a mixed-use facility retrofitted with thousands of square feet of commercial and private real estate.
