Personal Touch
In a piece for The Athletic, Will Sammon discusses Cohen’s personal touch in his free agent signings. In his November meeting at his Beverly Hills home, which Cohen requested took place there, the Mets owner discussed his background, relationships, and what made him successful. It’s a touch he’s done with many of his high-end free agent signings like Francisco Lindor, Max Scherzer and Justin Verlander. While he wines and dines them, there’s a warmth to it. Cohen makes sure to get the message across that he wants to build a team like it’s a family and a community. That’s how he takes care of his players. The perfect example is when Edwin Díaz suffered a torn patellar tendon in the World Baseball Classic. Cohen hired him a private chef and trainer and flew him up for Opening Day.
