The Brewers have retained Allen & Co. to facilitate the sale of the team, marking the end of the longest ownership tenure in the league. Bud Selig, who has been unable to avoid the perception of a conflict of interest since becoming acting commissioner in '92, said, "I wanted to do this for a long time. ... It's just time." Meanwhile, Eli Broad has put a $430M offer on the table to buy the Dodgers amid continued uncertainty surrounding Frank McCourt's highly-leveraged proposal.
