Also, someone who's being brought on to be a talking head on Bloomberg isn't going to say, "Yeah this is a real white elephant! I'm gonna be losing money hand over fist!"

Puck News: Orioles sold to Rubenstein

This is like, the least important aspect of this news, but I can't believe this was Ourand's first story at Puck. What a way to start a job--you can coast on that for a while. -

Gotta think he's a goodwill gesture toward fans in the sense of, "Hey Baltimore--a bunch of PE guys bought your team, but Cal is involved, so we'll definitely be staying in Camden Yards." -

Maybe I'm reading too much into the phrasing, but this makes it sounds as though the paperwork is already in front of Major League Baseball. -

I hate it when I go to the Devon and Blakely by my office in downtown DC and get a bad wrap. -
I'll always be fond of the guy. He came to my high school back in 2008 on some sort of career day-like event and was very kind/patient to an 18-year-old me, who desperately wanted to be a journalist. That being said, the whole posting streak shtick was...tired at best.

Almost like there's a difference between a self-made billionaire and a product of nepotism. -

I don't disagree with the vast majority of what you said, but 1998 to 2011 was pure hell and was almost entirely Peter's fault. That era wipes away any positive memories I have about the mid- and late-90s. -

I don't know how many people follow the Premier League, but this isn't like 777 Partners trying to buy Everton, where this is concern regarding if they actually have the finances to sustain the team. I think MLB will be very happy to have someone like Rubenstein in the fold. -

There was a Banner piece that mentioned late spring as a possibility as well. -

Can't believe it took 19 pages for me to think of this joke, but Rubenstein delivered the WOW offer we've been waiting 16 years for. -

I will take a nothing offseason in 2023-2024 for an infinitely brighter future. Also, you need to change your username. -
Feels weird to be nostalgic for the ornithologically correct bird, but here I am.

Is this the best day in franchise history since October 16, 1983? -

Niche complaing, and it's just because I was once a journalist, but it's wild they didn't credit Ourand for breaking it. -

Maybe this is naive, but Rubenstein is an Os fan--thus, he probably follows the team, knows how successful Elias has been, and just gives a great mind a budget. It's not like some Bay Area tech billionaire is buying the team. -
