The Chicago White Sox's desired price for their new stadium is coming into focus, and it is not small.
White Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf is preparing to ask Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker and other state leaders for roughly $1 billion in public money to fund the construction of the team's proposed stadium in the South Loop, according to Justin Laurence of Crain's Chicago Business.
For perspective, that amount of money would cover the majority of the purchase price of an entire MLB team, as the Baltimore Orioles recently sold at a valuation of $1.75 billion. The White Sox were estimated by Forbes to be worth $2.05 billion last year.
Earlier this month, the club unveiled its plans to move to the currently unoccupied 78 South Loop development near Clark Street and Roosevelt Road. The stadium would replace Guaranteed Rate Field, which was opened as Comiskey Park in 1991, the last field of the era before Camden Yards transformed the aesthetics of modern ballparks.
