Mayor Bill de Blasio of New York City must formally approve the transfer of the city’s property lease, but a solution is expected soon, according to the Mayor’s Office earlier this week.
As noted in Torser’s report, Cohen’s camp has a “real fear” that delaying approval from the mayor’s office can result in “competitive disadvantages.”
Cohen’s presumed approval should be finalized sooner, given that the start of MLB’s off-season coincides with the many roster holes that Mets needs to close this winter.
