St. Louis businessman Richard Chaifetz is “now a member” of the S.F. Giants ownership group. Chaifetz joined “at the partner level.” He has a “minor share of the team, in the 1%-2% range,” and he is “not on the team’s board.” The Giants have 35 partners in the ownership group. St. Louis Univ.’s business school and sports arena are named after Chaifetz, and he has “attempted to buy other pro sports teams, including the NFL’s Rams, the NBA’s Bucks and MLB’s Marlins” (S.F. CHRONICLE, 1/9).
