Yoenis Cespedes still outside Mets' price range
The Mets likely won't pursue Yoenis Cespedes unless his price tag comes down.The Mets still have a hole in their outfield, but they are not going to a burn a hole in their pocket to fill it.
Despite newfound money due to the retirement on Michael Cuddyer and not having to spend $56 million for Ben Zobrist, the Mets are not interested in Yoenis Cespedes and other expensive outfield bats — at least at the current asking price.
