Mets 2nd Most Valuable Team

Bryan Hoch at Mets.com writes about the Mets franchise being the second most valuable baseball team in MLB:

The Yankees' value increased to $1.306 billion over the past year, a rise of nine percent, while the Mets were second at $824 million, the magazine said Wednesday. The Red Sox were third at $816 million.

Well you almost had to concede first place to the Yankees, but I wouldn’t have seen the Mets beating out the Red Sox.
