Mark Cuban is glad he couldn't buy an MLB team, says ‘baseball is a mess'

Mark Cuban is one of the more well-known and outspoken owners in sports. He lived up to that reputation with a shot at Major League Baseball on Tuesday.

Cuban tweeted out a link to an interview with MLB commissioner Rob Manfred talking about the Houston Astros' cheating scandal. Cuban took a shot, saying “baseball is a mess.”

Cuban tried multiple times to buy an MLB team. The Cubs were the first team he bid for in 2008, but Cuban has also made bids for the Texas Rangers and Los Angeles Dodgers. The Ricketts family bought the team in 2009 instead of Cuban.

The word was that Cuban, who owns the Dallas Mavericks and has become a vocal part of the NBA, was denied because MLB didn’t want him as an owner. Seems like he is happy with that now.
