Red Sox owner John Henry has made it clear that he has no intention of selling the team anytime soon. In a recent profile in the Financial Times, Henry stated that he and his wife are committed to Boston and have no plans to part ways with the Red Sox, as they do not generally sell assets.
This news may come as a disappointment to some fans who have long hoped for a change in ownership. Henry’s comments about the team being just another “asset” to him have sparked controversy and raised questions about his true commitment to the Red Sox and their fans.
Despite the disappointment, Henry seems unfazed by the criticism. He has shown a willingness to pursue new ventures and projects, such as his involvement in saving golf during the 2023 MLB owners meeting. This has led some to speculate that his focus may be shifting away from the Red Sox and towards other interests.
While Henry’s dedication to the team may be in question, there is no denying the success he has brought to the Red Sox during his tenure. Under his ownership, the team has won multiple World Series titles and transformed Fenway Park into a modern sports venue.
Whether fans agree with Henry’s approach or not, one thing is clear: the Red Sox are more than just a baseball team to their owner, they are a business asset. And as long as Henry remains at the helm, it seems unlikely that the team will be up for sale anytime soon.
