Could Derek Jeter do for the Miami Marlins what Magic Johnson did for the Dodgers?
A group led by Jeter and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush have won the bidding for the Miami Marlins, Bloomberg reported Tuesday. Neither the Marlins nor Major League Baseball would comment on the report.
If the Marlins finalize a deal with the Jeter-Bush group, it could take weeks or months for MLB to scrutinize the financing and approve the deal. The Marlins are expected to sell for more than $1.
