Joe Lacob has been lusting after a baseball team for years. Now, with at least one and maybe three on the market, could the Warriors owner finally get one?
Dogged by corruption scandals, Angels owner Arte Moreno announced recently that he was considering selling the team, which has struggled largely due to his meddling in recent decades. Asked if he would consider bidding for the Angels, Lacob wouldn’t rule it out. “Can’t answer this question that fast,” Lacob told the Los Angeles Times. “We look at good opportunities.”
The Washington Nationals are also for sale, and the Baltimore Orioles could be as well, depending on the outcome of a lawsuit between squabbling members of the family that owns the Orioles.
