Must Read: Inside Look At Players Involved In Rangers' Bankruptcy Sale

In this Must Read, the FT. WORTH STAR-TELEGRAM on Saturday ran a special looking at the roles Tom Hicks, Chuck Greenberg and Sal Galatioto played in the "highly dramatic" bankruptcy sale of the MLB Rangers in '10. Barry Shlachter, under the header “Death Threats, Smear Campaigns Rocked Rangers’ Bankruptcy Sale,” writes that the process “was no ordinary bankruptcy or auction.” Shalchter notes MLB Commissioner Bud Selig "stubbornly favored" the Nolan Ryan-Chuck Greenberg group despite a rival bid from Mark Cuban and Jim Crane offering "more money." The bidding process was "poisoned" by a “thuggish and mean-spirited disinformation campaign,” which Cuban believes “originated at the highest levels of MLB” (FT. WORTH STAR-TELEGRAM, 8/1).
