DEAL TO SELL YANKS

"The Lackawanna County Multi-Purpose Stadium Authority hopes to unveil an agreement to sell the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees Triple-A baseball franchise at a special meeting tentatively set for Monday... Under the proposed agreement, the franchise owned by Lackawanna and Luzerne counties would be sold to SWB Yankees LLC, a joint venture of the New York Yankees and Mandalay, for $14.6 million, and SWB Yankees would agree to lease PNC Field in Moosic as part of the sales terms."--The Times-Leader
