Will the Saitama Seibu Lions be sold?
I surely hope not. Despite the problems of its parent company, the franchise has had a colorful 34-year history, and I would like to see it continue.
Apparently, former U.S. Vice President Dan Quayle feels the same way. He is currently chairman of Cerberus Global Investments, which seeks to increase its interest in the Seibu company by about four percent from the current 32.4 percent it holds, leading to speculation some rural Seibu Railway lines would be discontinued and the Lions would be put up for sale.
