BIG TIME: MAGIC PUTS A BID ON THE DODGERS!!!

Magic will work in collaboration with a team of stakeholders to make his dream of ownership a reality.

He commented to ESPN that:

“I’m a big baseball fan and you think about what the Dodgers have meant to baseball and to Los Angeles, and that part’s a no-brainer. … I’ve been to that place [Dodger Stadium] hundreds and hundreds of times.”

If it all comes into fruition, Magic Johnson will become the first black owner in the history of the MLB.

CEO of the Guggenheim group Mark Walter would write the big checks; Steve Kasten would oversee the baseball operations; and Magic, who recently sold his ownership share of the Los Angeles Lakers, would work as a president or vice president on both the business side and in recruiting players.
