Bob DuPuy & The Double Speak In The Sale Of The Nats

Yesterday, my sports cast had a piece of a statement of denial issued by the President/COO of Major League Baseball, Bob DuPuy, that the sale of the Washington Nationals was imminent.

Well, that was yesterday. Today, baseball's second in command is sayings Commissioner Bud Selig will likely pick a new owner for the Washington Nationals in a few days, and to expect a fast-track sale of the team, probably by June.

Eight groups have bid for the Nationals, which have been owned by the other 29 teams since 2002 when they were still the Montreal Expos.
