Jamie McCourt expected to ask for immediate sale of Dodgers

She will apparently send her lawyers to court tomorrow to argue that ex-husband Frank McCourt has endangered the value of the Dodgers, and set her up for a big loss should Commissioner Bud Selig seize the club. Superior Court Judge Scott Gordon is expected to set a hearing date tomorrow, Bill Shaikin says at LATimes.com. With Frank McCourt expected to miss the Dodgers' upcoming payday, the commissioner could be free to take full control of the team.

Meanwhile, Dodgers ticket sales are off 16% from last year. If the trend continues they would see fewer than three million tickets for the first time since 1992, the Times says.
