Robinson Cano, the New York Mets‘ starting second baseman, will miss the 2021 campaign after being busted using performance-enhancing drugs for the second time in his career. That creates a hole at the keystone, one that the team is, fortunately, prepared to cover.
The Mets can move rookie Andres Gimenez to second base, or even Jeff McNeil, who has plenty of experience there. However, according to recent reports, the team hasn’t ruled out bringing someone from outside the organization.
Per Bae Ji-Heon of South Korea’s Naver News, the New York Mets are one of six clubs in the hunt for Korean infielder Ha-Seong Kim.
