Alex Rodriguez approached Jorge Mas, who came close to buying the Miami Marlins, about pooling resources to purchase the New York Mets.
Former New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez and his fiancée, Jennifer Lopez, have emerged as candidates to buy the New York Mets. Rodriguez, who grew up a Mets fan, is apparently planning to retain JPMorgan Chase in order to come up with the money needed to do so.
