The owners of the Mets will be forced to sell the club after incurring huge financial losses in the Bernie Madoff scandal. The Wilpon family lost about $700 million because of Madoff, according to Erin Arvedlund, author of "Too Good to Be True." Arvedlund said the losses are steep enough that a sale of the baseball team is certain. "It's qualified by when," she told Reuters. "It's possible they would have to sell by next year."
