Mets second in worth

According to Forbes magazine, the Mets are currently second on the list of franchise worths, ranking in at $824 million.

The Yankees, not surprisingly, are first, worth just over $1.3 billion, while Boston ranked in at third, worth $816 million.

From the AP:

The Mets had an operating profit of $32.9 million, according to Forbes. Boston, according to Forbes, had a $19.1 million operating loss.

The Mets are the only team in the top three to have an operating profit, which seems odd to me. The Yankees actually had a $47.3 million operating loss.
