Jeb Bush is no longer interested in buying the Miami Marlins and has ended his pursuit of the team, according to two people close to the negotiations.

Derek Jeter, who had been part of Bush's group, is still exploring a bid with other investors.

Jeter becomes the frontman for an investment group competing with a group led by businessman Tagg Romney. The Romney group includes Tom Glavine and former Arizona Diamondbacks general manager Dave Stewart.
