Dodgers a Business, Not a Gift to City
William Tomicki’s apology on behalf of Peter O’Malley (Viewpoint, June 28) cannot go unanswered. It is an insult to my intelligence for anyone to claim that the Dodgers are Walter O’Malley’s “great gift to Los Angeles.” The Dodgers are a big, profitable business, the most valuable franchise in the majors at a time an expansion franchise brings $95 million.
The decision to bring the Dodgers to Los Angeles was motivated by financial gain, plain and simple.
