On a day when Derek Jeter’s No. 2 was retired by the New York Yankees, the former shortstop was a man of few words when the topic turned to his bid to buy the Miami Marlins in partnership with former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.
“There’s nothing to report on that, absolutely nothing,” Jeter told the New York Daily News. “I think sometimes stories and people get ahead of themselves, and there was a story that got way ahead of themselves a few weeks back…If there’s something to report I’ll let you know.”
The Bush-Jeter group is trying to buy the Marlins.
