Jesus de Blasio - Why try to prevent sale if Mets

[redseat]

Bill de Blasio has privately told Major League Baseball that he will do everything he can to stop Steve Cohen from buying the Mets.

The Post has learned that Hizzoner called MLB commissioner Rob Manfred earlier this month and told him outright that he opposed the idea of a hedge-fund billionaire buying a local team and would be using his oversight power of the city’s control of the Citi Field lease to prevent the sale from being finalized.

A source inside City Hall confirmed to The Post that de Blasio did call Manfred, but said the mayor’s message to the MLB commish was “very close to what the mayor has been saying publicly.”

He'll be out of office next fall, then he can't do anything about it. He probably can't do anything about it now

What could possibly be the reason? I feel like not liking a guy wouldn't be a valid reason and would open the door for massive lawsuits.

The only thing I can come up with is "hedge fund manager bad"

Deblasio is actually a red Sox fan for some reason

When in doubt, blame A-Rod.

It's always worked for me.

De Blasio’s shameful Steve Cohen ploy traces back to Alex Rodriguez

There have been so many things that have pockmarked the tortured and torturous Bill de Blasio Error in this city, ever since its residents made the ever-so-dubious decision to elect him Mayor in 20…

I read this as the city has an opportunity to squeeze more money out of someone so they're trying to take advantage:

This could backfire and the sale not go through. Slippery slope. IF that's the real reason and they truly want "the best" for the city, ok but im not really that trusting of politicians when it comes to money. Most of them only look to line there own pockets!

It appears that DiBlasio has decided to get out of the way.

Congrats Mets fans, you now have the richest owner in baseball.
