Any lawyer will tell you: divorce is expensive. Usually, it's one or both of the spouses who suffer when income and assets are divided. In the case of the Los Angeles Dodgers, it's the farm system that's feeling the pain. To be fair, the Dodgers under Frank and Jamie McCourt weren't all that interested investing in the farm system before their acrimonious split.
From the article:
The Dodgers have paid $8.5 million in signing bonuses for draft picks over the last two years -- the lowest figure among all major league teams, according to Baseball America.
Now that Frank and Jamie are on the outs, a sudden reversal in philosophy seems unlikely. On the plus side, with over 50 percent of all marriages ending in divorce, the Dodgers won't be the only kids in class spending every other weekend at dad's.
