New York Mets: Mike Repole reportedly joins Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez bid to buy

Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez have been linked with the New York Mets for a few weeks now. They reportedly want to acquire the team from the Wilpons, who are looking to sell, but the former MLB star and the actress, singer and entrepreneur, his fiancée, struggled to find another deep pocket to finance the deal.

According to Darren Rovell of Action Network HQ, they may have found who they were looking for in billionaire Mike Repole. He has, per Rovell, joined the Alex Rodriguez/Jennifer Lopez group in hopes of buying the Mets.

Repole has found success as a businessman, being specifically involved with Vitaminwater and BODYARMOR Super Drink.
