NY Post: Mets eyeing Andrew McCutchen for added outfield depth. "McCutchen, 36, is coming off an inconsistent season with the Brewers and has lost some power since he was a five-time All-Star with the Pirates.  He finished with an OPS of .700, a career-low, but was still a league-average hitter and remains solid as a corner outfielder." [17 HRs, .237 Avg., 69 RBIs in 515 at-bats]

SNY.TV: On Mets Hot Stove, SNY's Andy Martino said that free-agents Adam Duvall and Trey Mancini are two players that have been "on their radar." [Adam Duvall 12 HRs - .213 Avg. in 287 at-bats last year for the Braves.  Trey Mancini 18 HRs - .239 Avg. in 519 at-bats for the Orioles and Astros last year.]

NY Post: Mets star Francisco Lindor and wife Katia expecting second child.

The Mets released the following statement on Carlos Correa: "We were unable to reach an agreement. We wish Carlos all the best."

NY Post: Carlos Correa found it ‘shocking’ Mets, Giants deals fell through over ankle.
