After many rumors, msn.com confirms that former Yankee Derek Jeter, businessman Bruce Sherman, and other associates have purchased the Miami Marlins. The previous owner, Jeffery Loria, put up an asking price of $1.2 billion dollars. It took months for Sherman and Jeter’s 16 investors to pile up the $1.2 billion dollar asking price. The other investors including Sherman helped for the money while Jeter will manage baseball related tasks. Jeter hasn’t been in any baseball related positions since 2014 when he ended his 20 year playing career with the Yankees.
