Is this really happening? New ownership for the Mets is a dream come true, and you know they'll spend that money if they really are dead set on winning one before they leave.

Could be a blessing and a curse. Hopefully BVW can do something with this extra cash.

EDIT: Would not be surprised they go over the luxury tax threshold this season.

Sounds like this guy like many very rich folks has skeletons in his closet. I’m not sure Rob Manfred though is really one who will care. Sports ownership is very much an old boys club. So long as he has no sexual assaults or racial bigotry in his past this will probably get approved

This is going to be the longest 5 years for every Mets fan as they countdown until the Wilpons are (presumably) gone.

Fills the defensive CF upgrade they were looking for. Apparently it is for two prospects. No clue who they are just yet.

According to The Post: minor league pitcher Blake Taylor and outfielder Kenedy Corona. (Neither considered an elite prospect.)
