Report: A-Rod, Jennifer Lopez Working on New Bid for Mets

Just weeks removed from reports that Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez were no longer interested in buying the New York Mets, the New York Post's Thomas McEnery reported Friday evening that the two are working on a new bid to try and buy the franchise.

Per the Post, Rodriguez and Lopez are now involved closely with very senior bankers at JPMorgan Chase on a new offer and are putting in "hundreds of millions" of their own money into a potential bid.

The Post adds that the inclusion of SNY, the Mets' television network, in a potential sale is indicative of current owners, Fred and Jeff Wilpon, interest in selling the team.
