In theory, in any business transaction, each participant should have a plan of how to benefit.
That is, unless the White Sox are involved.
Of course, what “benefit” means can be in the eye of the beholder. For us fans, the idea would be to form a better team that wins baseball games. By contrast, for the only person who matters where the White Sox are concerned — the owner — “benefit” just means more money stuffed in his pockets, less taxes paid (if any), and the most public funds he can grab while sticking up a middle finger to the people of Chicago and environs.
