WRIGLEY FIELD NAMING RIGHTS MIGHT BE SOLD

Chicago billionaire Sam Zell said in an interview on CNBC that he will not hesitate to sell the naming rights for Wrigley Field, home of the Chicago Cubs.

From AP via The Chicago Tribune:

Zell said he plans to sell the Cubs and Wrigley separately and in his own time frame. He also disclosed that Major League Baseball has approved "four or six" potential ownership groups and that any one of them would be fine.

The sale of the team has been delayed by Zell's plan to sell the team and the stadium separately, and to have a state agency acquire and renovate Wrigley
