According to freelance journalist Laura Goldman, Steve Cohen will make another, less aggressive bid for the New York Mets. The hedge fund manager has been tied to the sale of the franchise since Fred Wilpon offered up his majority share to the right suitor.
Along with Cohen, the husband and wife tandem of Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez are also making a play for the team. Add in New Jersey Devils and 76ers owners Josh Harris and David Blitzer, among others. The Mets and Cohen previously had a deal in place, but it soon fell apart, leading to the influx of potential suitors.
