Yesterday afternoon, MLB owners approved the sale of the New York Mets to hedge fund manager Steve Cohen. The purchase makes Cohen the wealthiest owner in the majors, and Mets fans reveled at the news online.
Mike Piazza is excited:
Very Excited for this next chapter in @Mets history. This is a special day for all of us. Looking forward to the future with pride and optimism. Mr. Cohen, you have my full support and gratitude. Looking forward to seeing you all at @CitiField next year!
