"After 23 tumultuous years of ownership, Arte Moreno agrees to sell the Los Angeles Angels for a reported $4 billion—the highest price yet for a Major League Baseball team, topping the $3.9 billion the San Diego Padres were sold for earlier this year."

"The buyer is hardly anonymous; he’s Stan Kroenke, the multi-billionaire who owns teams in virtually every other American sports league, including the NFL (Los Angeles Rams), NBA (Denver Nuggets), NHL (Colorado Avalanche) and MLS (Colorado Rapids). Kroenke also owns a majority stake in Arsenal, the reigning Premier League soccer champs in England."

"Fans should be equally ecstatic and wary of the 79-year-old Kroenke. He is not afraid to spend money and could make the Angels, whose postseason drought of 11 years (going on 12) is the longest active in MLB, a major player once again on the free agent market. But he has also riled fans in St. Louis for breaking a lease to move the Rams back to Los Angeles, and those in Europe for his failed efforts to create a closed “super” league for top soccer teams there, resulting in a massive backlash."

"But for now, any new owner will suit Angels fans just fine after Moreno’s devolving tenure. He inherited a World Series winner in 2003 when he bought the franchise for $183 million, remaining a contender under his watch for the next decade as the team consistently drew three million fans to Angel Stadium. But Moreno will be more remembered for the multitude of controversies, many of his own making. These include disastrous contracts to underperforming stars such as Josh Hamilton, Anthony Rendon and Vernon Wells; his desperate attempt to attach “Los Angeles” to the official team name; an ambitious plan to remake Angel Stadium and the surrounding area that collapsed under shady circumstances; and the tragic saga of late Angels pitcher Tyler Skaggs, who died after being given opioids from front office staff. Moreno probably drove the final nail into his coffin earlier this year when he told reporters that Angels fans didn’t care about his team winning."
