The Chicago Tribune reports that they’ve reached a deal to sell the Cubs and Wrigley Field:
Tribune Co. has reached a deal to sell the Chicago Cubs and Wrigley Field to the Ricketts family, a source familiar with the matter said this morning.
The two sides reached a sale agreement over the weekend and have forwarded the contract to Major League Baseball, the source said.
The deal must be approved by other baseball owners. With Tribune Co. operating under Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the sale also will need court approval.
Why does a paper leak a story to itself? Why not just say X just called to say the deal was done. I’m sure it didn’t come from the Ricketts family.
