Report: Manfred Calling on Owners for “Initial Thinking” on Cohen

As reported previously by MMO, MLB owners could potentially vote on Steve Cohen’s ownership of the Mets before mid-November, when owners’ meetings are scheduled to take place.

Now, as per a report by Charles Gasparino of FOX Business Network, Rob Manfred is currently requesting owners’ “initial thinking” when it comes to the Mets’ sale to Cohen.

According to Gasparino’s report, it is believed that – as of this very moment – Cohen has the votes that he needs, but “that could change.”

In the aforementioned vote of approval that will likely take place sometime in November, Cohen must receive 23 “yes” votes out of 30 to obtain ownership.
