A newly hired Dodgers executive criticized Bud Selig on Thursday, calling the baseball commissioner's move to take control of the team "irresponsible." Team vice chairman Steve Soboroff held a news conference during a 5-3 win over Atlanta in 12 innings at Dodger Stadium to assail Selig's actions. "All this momentum is building and then all of sudden this letter comes in and says, 'You don't have any money. You don't have this or that.' I think it was irresponsible," Soboroff said. "To me, if you're going to send somebody out here to take something over, you don't write a letter that says, 'Gee whiz, here's all these problems with you and here's everything else, but don't worry, later on in the week we're going to send somebody else out.' You do it the same day. ... What are you supposed to do for four days?" he said. Selig is expected to soon appoint a new head of the Dodgers.
