HBT: Report: Mets 'very interested' in Sizemore

With Lucas Duda, Kirk Nieuwenhuis, Mike Baxter and the newly-acquired Collin Cowgill as the top internal options on their 40-man roster, the Mets don?t have a legitimate everyday outfielder at this point. Now they are looking at someone who hasn?t played in the majors since September 22, 2011.

SNY?s Kevin Burkhardt hears that the Mets are ?very interested? in free agent outfielder Grady Sizemore. The 30-year-old didn?t play at all with the Indians in 2012 and is expected to be out until midseason next year following microfracture surgery on his right knee in September, so patience will be required by any team that signs him. The Mets aren?t expected to contend in 2013, so they might be one of those clubs willing to roll the dice on a possible rebound.

Sizemore was once one of the game?s brightest young stars, but he has missed 382 of a possible 486 games over the past three seasons. After having microfracture surgery on both of his knees since 2010, his days as a center fielder are likely over. Chances are he?ll have to settle for a one-year deal with a low guarantee or possibly a minor league deal.
