We may be reaching the end of a very long saga. According to Charles Gasparino of Fox Business, Allen & Company set July 9 (a week from now) as the date for every interested party in buying the New York Mets to submit their bids.
Allen & Company is the firm in charge of managing the sale of the Mets. Gasparino said that among the people interested in bidding appears a familiar name: Steve Cohen, the hedge fund billionaire that came very close of acquiring the team from the Wilpons just a few months ago.
