I wouldn't call them hand-picked by Selig. Suits, yes. Hand-picked by MLB? Not really. They made their bids on their own merits, and now MLB is picking its favorite. It's not like Selig invited these people to bid based on their friendship, which I haven't read anything at all about.
I still say the Ricketts would be very good owners, and the least likely to be part of the good ole boys network. And at least they're actual fans of the team.
