    The Mets will not be making any of their front-office executives available today to discuss Yoenis Cespedes' heel issues, or the communication disconnect among Cespedes, the coaching staff and the FO. The team does not expect to comment further until Cespedes sees another doctor.

    Simple logic? Mets season is done- rather have cespedes healthy for 2019 season - obviously they test it out last night and he felt pain -
    Case closed

    Knowing the Mets they will have him play though it and get surgery at the end of next year and miss most if the season.

    Sounds like they need to either shut him down, or trade him to the AL where he can DH.

    Yoelkis Cespedes, younger brother of Mets outfielder Yoenis Cespedes, has left the Cuban National Team and defected, reports MLB.com's Francys Romero. The Cuban National Team was participating in an international exhibition series in the independent Canadian American (Can-Am) Association when the younger Cespedes defected.

    Here's more from Romero:

    Cespedes, a 21-year-old center fielder for Granma in the Cuban National Series and considered a five-tool player, is expected to attempt to be declared a free agent and seek a contract with a Major League club. Because he is under 25 and has fewer than six seasons as a professional in a foreign league, he will be subject to MLB's international signing rules, by which clubs are each subject to a spending cap for amateur international free agents. Each year's international signing period begins July 2 and continues through June 15 of the following year.

    There are still hurdles to clear before Cespedes can sign with an MLB team. Most notably, he must establish residency in a separate country, then be unblocked by the Office of Foreign Assets Control. Once that happens, MLB can declare Cespedes a free agent. The entire process could take as little as 6-8 weeks or as long as a year, depending on OFAC's workload.
