Steve Cohen Purchase Leads to Big Betting Money on Mets

This past Tuesday might’ve been the most excited New York Mets fans have been since Game 4 of the 2015 NLCS.

Steve Cohen, new owner and CEO of the organization, held his opening press conference with the media just days after completing his purchase of the team. Fans believe Cohen’s outlook (and wallet) will bring the Mets to the promised land, a place they haven’t resided since 1986.

Many think major changes could actually be made as early as 2021, and bettors seem to agree, to say the least.

The Mets haven’t played October baseball since the 2016 campaign when they lost to the San Francisco Giants in the Wild Card round.
