Rachel Minaya, the wife of former Mets general manager and current Yankees executive Omar Minaya, was found dead in their New Jersey home on Saturday, according to a person briefed by the family.
Omar Minaya was not home at the time of his wife’s death.
According to the person who had been briefed by the family, suicide has been ruled out as the cause of death.
The Minayas have two adult sons, Justin and Teddy.
Justin is a forward with the Portland Trail Blazers and has been playing for their summer league team this month in Las Vegas.
According to a 2007 Sports Illustrated profile, Omar met Rachel in 1989 at a Manhattan hair salon.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
