In yet another embarrassing flap, Wilpon was quoted in a New Yorker magazine story this week as criticizing his three All-Star players: third baseman David Wright, outfielder Carlos Beltran and shortstop Jose Reyes. He later apologized.

Wilpon and Katz paid $391 million for the Mets nine years ago, and it is now valued by Forbes magazine at $747 million. Still, that's off 13% from the prior-year's Forbes valuation.
