Alex Speier of WEEI.com is not convinced soon-to-be free-agent infielder Julio Lugo will sign with the Mets.
…hat tip to MLB Trade Rumors for the link to WEEI…
In case you missed it, last Friday, the Red Sox designated infielder Lugo for assignment.
According to yesterday’s Boston Herald, the Mets, Cardinals and Cubs have all expressed interest in Lugo, who is due $4.5 million through the rest of this season, plus $9 million in 2010.
Adam Rubin of the Daily News said yesterday he believes the Mets will sign Lugo when he becomes a free agent toward the end of next week.
…according to eyewitnesses, lugo has been working out at the Mets baseball academy in the Dominican Republic… however, from what i can gather, this is not totally uncommon…
Update, 2:33 pm:
Speaking of aging, middle infielders…
Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com believes the Mets are interested in acquiring A’s SS-2B Orlando Cabrera, as are the M’s, Cardinals, Rockies and Reds.
