The Mets claim that despite the presence of principal owner Fred Wilpon on a 162-page list of victims of Bernard L. Madoff's $50 billion investing scandal, the team is fine financially.
"As we have said before on numerous occasions, this does not and will not affect the day-to-day operations and long-term plans of the Mets' organization and the Citi Field project," the team said in a statement.
