DAVIE, Fla. — Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross, who explored purchasing the Miami Marlins last year, says the sale price is too high and he’s no longer interested.
Owner Jeffrey Loria has been publicly shopping the Marlins since February but hasn’t found a buyer.
“I think he’s holding out for dollars right now that are unrealistic, is what I would guess,” Ross said Thursday. “They have their issues, certainly. But that’s their problem. I’ve got to worry about mine.”
Three investment groups are now pursuing a purchase, and earlier this month baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred said all have offered about the same amount of money.
