Yoenis Cespedes not returning to Mets, report says image

Yoenis Cespedes won’t be returning to the Mets next season, CBS Sports reported.

The Mets apparently were only interested in a short-term deal for no more than three years, and Cespedes, 30, is seeking several more than that. Here are eight possible destinations for the Cuban outfielder.

The free agent slugger was a key driver in the Mets’ pennant chase last season with a .942 OPS. For the season, Cespedes hit 30 homers with 105 RBI and a .291 average.

The Angels, Giants, Tigers and White Sox are thought to be possibilities for Cespedes.
