Mets Rumors: Available Players

The Mets are currently 6.5 games out of the wild card, with Dillon Gee opposing Chien-Ming Wang tonight in Washington, D.C.  The latest:

• The trade front is now quiet with the Mets, tweets ESPN's Jerry Crasnick.  He says R.A. Dickey is staying put, Jason Isringhausen probably will stay, and Chris Capuano, Scott Hairston, and Tim Byrdak are available but probably will also stay.  Mets GM Sandy Alderson said yesterday that he doesn't expect more trades.
• Carlos Beltran's agent Scott Boras will seek a five-year, $70MM deal in free agency, reports Matthew Cerrone of MetsBlog.  I can see four years and $52MM if a team extends itself, but Beltran will be 35 in April of next year.
• New Mets prospect Zack Wheeler spoke to reporters today, noting that he found out about his inclusion in the Beltran trade by watching ESPN and he's happy about joining his new team.
