Report: Steve Cohen Back In The Bidding For New York Mets

(CBSNewYork)- The New York Mets sale has been attracting plenty of big names over the course of the last few months. Now, the bidding is reportedly seeing the return of the man everyone thought had previously agreed to buy the team: billionaire Steve Cohen.

According to the New York Post, the 64-year-old Cohen is set to once again bid on the team just five months after his $2.6 billion deal for the franchise fell apart in February. Cohen is already a minority owner of the team, holding eight percent of the franchise and he grew up a Mets fan.
