Source: Cuban-American Jorge Mas emerges as serious contender to purchase Marlins

The Miami Marlins are for sale and it's fairly well known that Derek Jeter's name has been mentioned as being part of a potential group to buy the major league club. However, the most logical future owner of the Marlins could very well be a name that only recently has started to be mentioned, Jorge Mas, a Cuban-American whose family has been well-known in Miami and South Florida for decades.

A source with direct knowledge of the possible purchase, said the small group led by Mas appears to have the most solid-footing and deepest pockets when it comes to the possible purchase price.
