group bid: The person said Jeter, a 14-time All-Star shortstop, met with MLB and Marlins officials in New York and provided an update on his efforts to raise the needed money, according to The Japan Times. The person said multiple other groups remain in the mix to purchase the team. The person described the status of the Marlins' sale talks to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the team isn't discussing the negotiations publicly. Jeter's group bid about 1.3 billion to buy the Marlins from Jeffrey Loria. Jeter continued his pursuit of the franchise after former Florida Gov. A similar bid was submitted by a group led by Massachusetts businessman Tagg Romney, son of former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney.
