The MLB owners have just approved the sale of the Mets to Steve Cohen. It’s the start of a new era for the Mets with deep pockets and an owner who is a lifelong fan. This is great for NY sports and it should put the Mets on the map in a big way for the start of the free agent signings this off-season.
Met fans have to be excited. Yankee fans, maybe not so much. No doubt the Yankees will be happy to send over Giancarlo Stanton or even Gary Sanchez. Just make an offer – it doesn’t cost you anything.
Of course, the key is to spend wisely and mix in the occasional star with a strong pipeline of prospects.
Any downside to this?

Will the Mets now be known as the Cohen-heads?
Good luck to the Mets. I’m tired if Los Angeles and Boston in the past of getting so much glory. 1969 was a great year which started with Broadway Joe…..went through Clyde and Willis and ended with Cleon Jones catch in left field. What a year…
