it’s debatable that ownership of the marlins could be considered a “win”.

Regardless of whether it’s Kushner and family or not, the other owners are not likely to approve this deal because reportedly the bidder doesn’t have the liquidity to cover the price and most of the purchase price would be financed. After the fiasco with the Dodgers they are very leery of deals like that.
