The owner in 97 was Huizenga, who owned the Dolphins. Loria bought the team in 2002 after dumping the Expos. Then they won a World Series a year later, he dumped everyone.

Then, spent years begging for taxpayer money for their new stadium, threatened to move the team to San Antonio... finally got the $$ and went crazy in FA to appear like they were trying again: got Buerhle, Reyes, all those guys, then dumped them all and slashed payroll by about $60 million after the first season in the new park.

And that's not to mention all the other meddling he's apparently done with the coaching staff and front office over the years, vetoing personnel decisions, etc.
