Thornton McEnery and Josh Kosman of the New York Post dropped a bombshell Tuesday night. They’re reporting that a new mystery bidder has been gaining steam in their pursuit of the New York Mets.
This comes on the heels of a previous report from the Post that an international buyer could be jumping into the race. That report was largely disregarded as most bankers believed it to just be the Wilpons trying to drum up interest. After all, there were only two known bidders, J-Rod and the Harris-Blitzer.
A new mystery bidder could change the game and the idea of an international owner could change everything.
