How much worse can it get for the troubled Boys in Blue. This is really stunning news breaking in major league baseball....

Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig announced that his office will oversee the Dodgers' financial operations.

What? Your kidding? A TAKEOVER of the DODGERS? Yep. Here are the details.

Baseball Commissioner Allan H. (Bud) Selig issued the following statement today regarding the Los Angeles Dodgers:

"Pursuant to my authority as Commissioner, I informed Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt today that I will appoint a representative to oversee all aspects of the business and the day-to-day operations of the Club. I have taken this action because of my deep concerns regarding the finances and operations of the Dodgers and to protect the best interests of the Club, its great fans and all of Major League Baseball. My office will continue its thorough investigation into the operations and finances of the Dodgers and related entities during the period of Mr. McCourt's ownership. I will announce the name of my representative in the next several days.

"The Dodgers have been one of the most prestigious franchises in all of sports, and we owe it to their legion of loyal fans to ensure that this club is being operated properly now and will be guided appropriately in the future."

Memo to Frank McCort: Time to sell, and get the hell out of LA once and for all. You have DESTROYED the DODGERS and enough is enough.
