Dodgers Not for Sale, Kasten Reassures Amid Ownership Shake-Up

Dodgers president Stan Kasten reiterated that the team is not for sale and has no sale process in motion, even as owner Mark Walter’s broader holdings face scrutiny and related moves, including the Lakers’ sale and Chelsea F.C. minority discussions. Investigations into Walter’s insurance businesses are ongoing (no charges yet), while TWG Global seeks investors to help manage loans. Kasten stressed the Dodgers’ finances stand on their own, with heavy CBT and luxury-tax obligations, and noted that Ohtani’s contract contains a key-man clause intended to reinvest savings if leadership changes occur.
