Is Landry's making a play for the Stros?

As noted in this earlier post, Drayton McLane may be quietly trying to sell the Stros. This Chronicle article speculates that Landry's announcement yesterday that it has completed arrangements for almost $850 million in debt may portend a move by Landry's CEO Tilman Fertitta to buy the club. During spring training earlier this year, Mr. McLane denied publicly that he was negotiating to sell the team to Mr. Fertitta. Stay tuned. Scott Boras will be watching this development carefully.
