Yahoo! Sports - MLB - Baseball owners set to approve Expos sale

The proposed move of the Montreal Expos to Washington is set to be approved when baseball owners meet Thursday in Chicago.

Originally, owners also were to vote on the $223 million sale of the Milwaukee Brewers from the family of commissioner Bud Selig to Mark Attanasio. But the commissioner's office has not finished processing the transaction, making it likely approval will be delayed for several weeks.



Also, the Washington franchise is expected to announce their team name on Monday around noon. I'm hoping it's the Greys but I think they'll go with the Nationals. One thing is certain, they are off to a terrible start with the Guzman and Castilla signings.
