Rachel Minaya, the wife of current New York Yankees executive and former New York Mets general manager Omar Minaya, was tragically found dead in her New Jersey home on Saturday. The cause of her death has been ruled out as suicide, according to a source close to the Minaya family. Omar Minaya was not present at home when the incident occurred. The couple leaves behind two sons, Justin and Teddy. Justin Minaya is currently pursuing a professional basketball career with the Portland Trail Blazers’ organization in the G League.
Omar and Rachel Minaya's love story began in 1989 when they met at a hair salon in New York City. Their relationship quickly blossomed, leading to their engagement within a year, as reported by a sports-based news outlet in 2007.
