Mets Might Look At Justin Upton, Been In Talks For Ben Zobrist

Meantime, the Mets have been scouring the market for offense but to this point have found mostly players other teams are trying to shed. Alderson recently said he's willing to "overpay" for hitting help, without specifying what he meant by that; in any case, like others, the Mets seem to have their limits in trading for rental stars, though they might at least look at Justin Upton if he becomes available, regardless of their preference for a lefty swinger.
