Faces not in your crowd: The billionaire owners who rule baseball

Ted Lerner, 94, turned a $250 loan from his wife, Annette, in the 1950s into a real estate empire, founding Lerner Enterprises, currently the largest landowner in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. The Lerner family is also a partner in Monumental Sports & Entertainment, which owns the 2018 Stanley Cup champion Washington Capitals, the 2019 WNBA champion Washington Mystics and the NBA’s Washington Wizards and Capital One Arena.

I love how the Jays act like a middle class team yet have the richest owner in all of MLB. Yes I am aware it’s a Corporation but they could easily be a top 5 spender

They are done.. The idea of sweaty guys in tights swapping spit has put an end to a not so important human moment. Sports can be replaced by AI characters..ie. The future of sports.

Buy a team....you run it or stop whining

LMRicketts is my favorite Cubs owner

Next year free agents are going to make much less and with less years because the owners will use Covid-19 and be unwilling to pay big money under uncertainty.

They all want a slice of the big pie!

Until a couple of owners sell their clubs you literally have no real basis for valuation on these franchises. You're just blowing smoke.

Oh yes... The POOR players And their hundreds of millions for playing a game.. 🙄

How can anyone possibly assign a current value to a franchise during a pandemic and with the future of sports such an unknown? Also, isn't it fair to think many of the men are losing money on most of their holdings right now?

Bottom right is not Tom Ricketts.

BRING BACK THE MONTREAL EXPOS! WAKE UP BASEBALL! MLB MLB Baseball Expos

MLB should have let mcuban become an owner back when he was interested!

Who wouldve guessed the marlins sassss

People seem to forget it’s a business. They should make money. And if they make a lot good for them.!there is nothing they “must” do. If players don’t like it don’t play.. grocery stores are hiring

None of them have lips.

I was actually with the owners this time. I did not feel that the players made enough concessions.

Not surprised the Nationals are last on this list, not surprised by POS Angelos of the Orioles, who still has control over the Nationals’ TV rights.

Fuck Fred wilpon. All my homies at the wilpons

You mean to tell me that a bunch of hedge fund managers/owners argued over money? That’s silly

Thank you for this.

You sure about that. I thought 6 owners didnt want a season at all

You gotta love these out of touch print newspapers that keep tweeting articles only to bring you to a paywall. Why not entice and tease by displaying the first couple paragraphs. I just might open my wallet. Duh...

Chicago Cubs🤡 “Todd Ricketts, the finance chairman of the Republican National Committee who is spearheading fundraising for President Donald Trump’s reelection”

How many baseball players are worth nine figures because of one of these guys. Bet it’s more than 30. This stuff works both ways.

Some real winners here a real rouges gallery. Forgot to mention Jim Crane is known racist and war profiteer. Faced federal crimes for discrimination and during the Iraq war over charged the US government.
