Mets, Jose Reyes agree to one-year deal
n a move that will not take their fanbase’s focus off of payroll, the Mets have agreed to terms on a one-year deal with infielder Jose Reyes, pending a physical. A source said the deal is worth $2.5 million, including about $500,000 in bonuses.
With Mets fans roaring about the Mets’ lack of spending on free agents, this surely will not be a move that quiets the critics. But the Mets source said that Reyes coming back is more insurance for second base and they will continue to look at free agent options for a starter.
Neil Walker is still available as a free agent at second base, or the Mets — who GM Sandy Alderson said were looking at the situation “expansively" — could make a move for a third baseman and move Asdrubal Cabrera to second. While Mike Moustakas is still out there available as a third baseman, he is said to have at least one big, multi-year deal on the table. The Mets have also been in contact with former Reds and Yankees third baseman Todd Frazier, a more economical route.
