Mets should take advantage of possible Mariners winter fire sale

With the Seattle Mariners reportedly looking to sell off many of their star players, the New York Mets would be wise to try to capitalize on the opportunity to improve their lineup. Two intriguing options for the Mets to go after are Jean Segura and Dee Gordon.

Segura is coming off his third consecutive season of posting a .300 average and sixth consecutive season with at least 20 stolen bases. While he doesn’t draw many walks, his hitting ability and speed would make for a good fit for a lead-off hitting role for the Metropolitans, whose roster is mostly lacking in speed.
