News broke Monday evening that the bidding for the New York Mets is down to just four ownerships groups. Steve Cohen is the favorite, but a mystery bidder was still involved. It’s possible that the mystery bidders were Sheldon Adelson and Silver Lake Private Equity.
Thornton McEnery of the New York Post is reporting that the pair are joining the bid headed by Joshua Harris and David Blitzer. However, multiple others are disputing that report.
Laura Goldman, formerly of the Huffington Post, reports that Adelson is not a part of Harris and Blitzer’s Mets bid.
