This article is for subscribers only.
Greenlight Capital Inc. President David Einhorn is in exclusive negotiations to buy a minority stake in the New York Mets for $200 million.
Einhorn said on a media conference call that he wouldn’t have a hand in operating the money-losing Major League Baseball franchise. The Mets, in a statement, described Einhorn as a “preferred partner” and said a final agreement is expected by late June. Any sale would require approval from Major League Baseball.
