Jeter travels to South Florida, addresses Marlins sale

A few quick Marlins notes on a Saturday:

• Derek Jeter came to South Florida this week to continue his pursuit of buying the Marlins and dined with Marlins president David Samson at The Four Seasons, according to non-baseball people who observed them.

One associate of Jeb Bush bemoaned how Jeter wanted total control, which had a major role in Bush exiting.

Jeffrey Loria has high regard for Jeter - and he will have every chance to close the deal - but Jeter still hasn’t been required to give definitive proof, in writing, that he has the money to get the deal done.
