I agree with that but my point was that the valuation is on the decline with the way Jerry is operating it and if he continues down this path a $1.5B sale price is possible in a few years.
Forbes had the White Sox valuation at $2.05B last year and now the shareholders are valuing the franchise at around $1.8B? Seems to me the valuation is declining. As I said a couple months ago, it wouldn’t surprise me if the franchise value is around $1.5B by the time Jerry sells out..
I would have liked this signing for the Sox so that they don’t feel obligated to rush Montgomery and/or roster a bum like Amaya. Also, Dejong has flip potential as I wouldn’t mind another prospect like Jarold Rosado in return come July.
Alienating a generation of fans tends to have a long lasting impact on a fanbase. I’m highly skeptical your last sentence is valid but, at this rate, we might not test this theory for another decade.
