Supposedly the Mets have ruled out Upton at this point, citing both sides being too far apart in asking price. Not sure the Mets would pay $8 million for a set-up guy knowing the Wilpons, but I'm sure Sandy and Preller will discuss him a lot this week.
They might also be closing in on a Tyler Clippard deal instead, which I'd be fine with too. I've always liked him.
