Two stories on a collision course
The headline above is the first. It may be behind a paywall for some of you, but here is the gist: "Now comes word the Dodgers are talking to Fox about retaining its media rights package for at least $6 billion, maybe $7 billion." To put it in perspective, that would be twice the contract the Angels signed with Fox Sports West. It works out to over $1M per game for the Dodgers. And here is the other: http://www.mlbdailydish.com/2012/11/25/3690094/zack-greinke-rumors-right-hander-expects-to-net-landmark-contract So Team Greinke is predicting a contract which will be less than only Sabathia's, and the Dodgers are on the cusp of a television contract second only to the revenue the Yankees derive from YES. I think Dipoto is already on Plan B.
