Mystery third bidder for Miami Marlins identified

Jorge Mas, a prominent South Florida businessman and philanthropist, has emerged as the mystery third bidder to purchase the Miami Marlins, two industry sources told The Miami Herald.

Mas is the Chairman of the Board and Co-Founder of MasTec, which according to its web site, is "a part of some of the largest and most complex infrastructure construction across the country."

Mas also is Chairman of the Board of the Cuban American National Foundation, an organization founded in 1981 dedicated to the promotion of a free and democratic Cuba.

Mas joins groups led by former New York Yankees star Derek Jeter and Tagg Romney as known suitors for the Marlins.
