The Los Angeles Dodgers could be ordered sold if the McCourts do not resolve payments, including property taxes and attorney's fees, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Each McCourt continues to complain of low liquidity, and L.A. Superior Court Commissioner Scott Gordon thought of one way to resolve their cash flow issue -- putting a for sale sign at Chavez Ravine, the newspaper said.
"The parties are unintentionally pushing the court toward an interesting position -- selling the asset which is being fought over," Gordon said in a court hearing.
The Dodgers and their facilities are worth over $700 million, according to Forbes Magazine. According to an article in the July issue of ESPN The Magazine, Frank McCourt has borrowed an estimated $390 million against the team.
Observers of the divorce view the court commissioner's language in the court ruling as a threat. The commissioner is more likely to make the McCourts sell off other assets such as one of their many estates.
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

SamphinNew MemberAs a hardcore Dodgers fan I can only say...GOOD!
These two idiots have no business owning a professional sports team, and I pray that someone with some actual money and who is actually a fan of the Dodgers (or at least baseball) buys the team and pursues some actual players via trades and free agency. McCourt is a ****ing Red Sox fan who failed ot buy them, so he went for the Dodgers. And proceeded to try and "Moneyball" in the second largest market in sports.
There is a reason we call him McCheap. Sell the team and go play out this saga on MAury Povich, you ****ing clowns.
