Report: Trump may name Cubs co-owner Todd Ricketts to Commerce Department

President-elect Donald Trump may name Chicago Cubs co-owner Todd Ricketts as the deputy secretary of the Commerce Department, according to CNN.

Ricketts backed Trump during the election as he helped raise at least $66 million for outside groups called Future 45 and the 45 Committee. Before supporting Trump, Ricketts was part of a super PAC that spent its resources trying to keep Trump from winning the Republican nomination.

Rciketts met with Trump last week.
