The New York Mets have reportedly zeroed in on a veteran target as they attempt to sort out their situation at first base.
According to ESPN's Buster Olney, New York is considering Adam Lind for the position.
The 34-year-old journeyman slashed .303/.362/.513 with 14 home runs and 59 RBIs in a part-time role (301 plate appearances) for the Washington Nationals last season.
The Mets are reportedly interested in Lind because they are not completely committed to left-handed prospect Dominic Smith at first base following his underwhelming performance in his first taste of the majors last season, per Mark Puma of the New York Post.
