- Josh Harris and David Blitzer lead the odds to own the Mets with +125 odds.
- A-Rod, J-Lo and Mike Repole have +135 odds of owning the Mets.
NEW YORK – Although the MLB season has been delayed, negotiations for the new Mets owners did not end. There are two potential ownership groups that are currently in a bidding war to become the owners.
Online sportsbooks have Josh Harris and David Blitzer’s group, Harris Blitzer Sports and Entertainment leading the odds at +125 to own the Mets.
They are bidding against former New York Yankee, Alex Rodriguez, his wife, Jennifer Lopez, and the founder of Vitamin Water, Mike Repole who have +135 odds of becoming the new owners.
Harris Blitzer is no stranger to buying sports franchises which is why they lead the odds.
They are also the minority owners of the New Jersey Devils (NHL), Philadelphia 76ers (NBA), Crystal Palace FC of the English Premier League, Scranton Wilkes/Barre RailRiders of the Triple-A International League and Dignitas esports company.
Like all sports teams owners, Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment have had their ups and downs with the franchises that they own.

In the seven years that they have owned the Devils, they have only been the playoffs once while in the nine years that they have owned the 76ers, they have made the NBA playoffs just three times.
A-Rod, J-Lo, and Mike Repole, on the other hand, have no previous experience in owning a sports franchise. It helps that A-Rod is a former player himself being that he could see things from the player's point of view and it also helps that Repole is a successful business tycoon.
The deal on this side originally only included A-Rod and J-Lo but the addition of Repole gives them a leg up in the bidding as they are going up against professionals.
With the MLB finally coming to a 60-game agreement for the 2020 season, bettors can expect the Mets current owners to act quickly and sell the team before the seasons start on July 23.
Bettors can and should bet on Harris and Blitzers MLB odds as they are no strangers to the ownership field.
