I agree, this is is ALMOST history repeating itself (Expos in the 90s trading away their star players every year). Being a happy fan is contingent on having a competent owner of the team.
Yes, and are you familiar with the sad history of ownership of MLB in DC? It’s a real downer that the city has suffered through some bad ones, whether it be due to a relative lack of resources or just poor management — or both. Almost everyone thought that the Lerners would do the city proud and be good stewards of the team as well as do what it took to maintain a perennially competitive team. They’ve made some strange decisions with the team over the years, but I really did not see this situation coming. DC baseball fans deserve so much better.
