First, it was Derek Jeter vs. Jeb Bush and a slew of other hopefuls for the right to buy the Miami Marlins from current owner Jeffrey Loria for a reported $1.3 billion.
Then, reports emerged that Jeter and Bush had teamed up and actually won the bid to buy the team, but that was soon debunked and the Jeter-Bush tandem even having the funds necessary to purchase the team came into question.
Now, it appears once again that Jeter and Bush may have the inside track when it comes to winning the bid to buy the team as Jeb Bush has told the New York Post that he’s “confident” him and Jeter will buy the Marlins.
