Carlos Beltran, who has become one of the most clutch players in postseason history (except for that one night at Shea), could be on the Yankees’ radar this winter, a move the former Met will strongly consider, sources tell Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News. According to multiple sources, the Yankees could be in the market for an outfielder this winter as they look to add some pop to a...

Mets Offseason Options Could Dwindle If Choo, Pence, Tulo and Cargo Stay Put

I’m no mathematician, but that means Swisher would be making about $18M per year if he gets what he wants. Jason Bay made $18M in 2012, so it strengthens Swisher’s case, but I just don’t...
