Mo Vaughn: from Mets bust to business breakthrough

“The Hit Dog” is trying to re-emerge as a top dog in the business world.

Mo Vaughn last was in the public eye when the hefty big-name slugger made an ignominious exit from the disastrous Mets teams of the early 2000s.

“I unfortunately didn’t play well in New York,” Vaughn told The Post in a recent interview. “However, I have been fortunate to make my name in New York as a businessman, and that’s just as fulfilling.”

Yes, while keeping a decidedly low profile in the 13 years since he left baseball, the 48-year-old Vaughn has found a niche in business across a variety of platforms.
