The Mets are in the process of being sold by the Wilpons to hedge-fund billionaire Steve Cohen. Beyond the seismic significance of that development, there are a number of smaller but pivotal questions. Here are a few — plus the answers:
Q: So what’s going to happen to SNY? Will Cohen own that as well?
A: He will not. The network is not part of the purchase, so the Wilpons will retain control of SNY. That’s surprising, because it’s a huge revenue generator Cohen won’t have as part of his takeover.
Q: Will the Wilpons really be running the Mets until 2025?
