Mets emerging as favorites for Robinson Cano, Edwin Diaz

Modal Trigger

Edwin Diaz and Robinson Cano

Brodie Van Waganen looks poised to make his first big splash as Mets general manager.

The Mets and Mariners have made momentum towards a trade that would send Robinson Cano and Edwin Diaz to Flushing, Yahoo Sports reports.

However, The Post’s Joel Sherman reports that the Mets do not feel like they are close to deal for Cano and Diaz and that the Mariners are still unsure on how to proceed. Seattle and GM Jerry DiPoto have been back and forth on whether to maximize their return for Diaz or to include Cano and the $120 million left on his his contract, which would severely diminish the return.
