Miami Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria is finalizing an agreement to sell the team to a group that includes former New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter for $1.2 billion, a source confirmed to ESPN on Friday. The deal is likely to be announced "in the coming days," the source said. The Miami Herald was first to report the pending agreement between Loria and a group headed by Bruce Sherman, a New York venture capitalist whose contingent has about 16 investors. read more http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/...reement-sell-team-group-including-derek-jeter
I wish Jeter was getting in with the Yankees Ownership Group, but will wish him well with the Marlins. I'm certain he'll be more than successful down there in Miami. The Marlins have some good ball players, the new owner ship can stabilize and set a better course.
had no clue MJ came into this mix, could be a good thing for Miami, another key celebrity. Even tho' Magic does little imo for the Bums, it's Jeter RE2PECT we all wan't to see............ maybe a year in time he can trade that M for a locking NY as a partial owner...........like wishing to move Everest....??
