Free-Agent-To-Be Shin-Soo Choo Won’t Rule Out Signing With Mets

Reds outfielder Shin-Soo Choo will be a free agent after the season, and he will be a very attractive option for Alderson. The 30-year-old plays all three outfield positions. He has speed and power and is a premier top-of-the-order catalyst.

Report: Jordany Valdespin Tried To Avoid At-Bat So He Wouldn’t Get Plunked

Valdespin knew that there was a very good chance that he would get hit. And in an effort to avoid getting plunked, the 25-year-old told manager Terry Collins — through trainer Ray Ramirez — that he was unavailable to hit, a source told the New York Daily News.

LISTEN: Mike Francesa Rips ‘Unwatchable, Embarrassing, Loser’ Mets

Kallet: Mets Need To Think Long And Hard About What To Do With Ike Davis

I sincerely hope Davis proves me wrong and suddenly finds his stroke. I hope he can be the .270, 40-homer guy that we all envisioned him being. But I just don’t see that ever coming to fruition. And sooner or later, the Mets will have to make a decision about their first baseman.
