From Ballpark to Boar Attack: Former Mets Star Sells $30M Ranch
SCANDAL ROCKS BASEBALL: Ex-New York Mets Star's Lavish Mansion Goes Up for Sale - and It's a Real Life-Fantasy Come True!
The news is out, and it's a doozy! After hanging up his cleats, former Mets star Yoenis Cespedes is cashing in on his luxurious mansion in Port St. Lucie, Florida, and we're not talking your average cookie-cutter estate - this place is fit for a king (or a baseball legend)!
The 400-acre spread, dubbed "La Potencia II" or "The Power," boasts an astonishing 16,000 square feet of pure opulence. And when we say lavish, we mean it - think six bedrooms, five bathrooms, and enough space to host the whole team for a celebratory bash!
But before you start drooling over the thought of having your own private wine cellar or walk-in closet the size of a Manhattan studio apartment, let's get to the juiciest part: the wild boar incident that left Mets fans (and Cespedes himself) shell-shocked in 2019! Yeah, that's right - we're talking about the time our hero tried to tame a savage beast and ended up missing playing time with an ankle injury. The drama!
Fast-forward to present day, and it seems Cespedes is ready to bid adieu to his sprawling estate, complete with its own private stable for 12 horses (talk about horseplay!) and training facility (because when you're a pro athlete, even your equine friends need to stay in top shape). And don't even get us started on the stocked barber shop - because when you're dealing with those luscious locks, you want to make sure they're always looking their best!
But what really gets our antennae twitching is the thought of that decadent heated pool (complete with a separate hot tub and water feature) - imagine hosting an epic summer soiree under the stars! Or how about that all-glass wine room next to the ornate bar? We can almost smell the Chardonnay wafting through the air!
Of course, we can't help but wonder what other secrets this mansion might hold. Is there a hidden safe filled with championship rings and MVP trophies? A secret passageway leading to a hidden cigar lounge? The possibilities are endless!
