New Jersey Devils and Philadelphia 76ers co-owner Josh Harris is working with minority owner David Blitzer on a potential bid to buy the New York Mets, according to Variety.
A source told Variety that talks on the possible deal are still in early stages. The Mets have retained Steve Greenberg at Allen & Co. to oversee the sale process. Both Greenberg and a spokesperson for Harris declined to comment.
In December, it was announced that Mets owners Fred and Jeff Wilpon were looking to sell a majority of the team, which they have controlled since 2002.
