Mets Looking For Versatility, Considering Marwin Gonzalez

Even after acquiring Robinson Cano, the New York Mets continue to look for help to improve their infield. In Jon Heyman’s Mets notes on Fancred Sports, he reported that the Mets have talked about signing free agent infielder Marwin Gonzalez, mainly because of his defensive versatility around the infield.
