The Dodgers went for over $2B...I would think the Sox would be at least close to that mark.

Liverpool fans are saying that FSG is going to sell so they can concentrate on the English soccer club, but I wouldn't bank on it.

"John Henry denies it"

So does Larry Lucchino:

"The owners of the Red Sox are considering selling the team and have quietly started shopping it to possible buyers, Charlie Gasparino of the FOX Business Network reports. However, Red Sox president and CEO Larry Lucchino said on WEEI’s Dennis & Callahan Show said the team’s owners are not contemplating a sale.

"Nonsense," Lucchino said (transcript via Kirk Minihane of WEEI). "As I said, they feel the same kind of competitive juices that the fans feel, that I feel. There's an opportunity here to put the team back on the track it was on for a decade. … There has not been one word, one word of discussion regarding that. We are committed, better or worse."
