The New York Mets are working hard to find a new second baseman, with most expecting them to trade for one. The team has been linked to Dee Gordon and Jason Kipnis in trade rumors, but MLB Network’s Jon Morosi reports<\/a> that Ian Kinsler is also on that list. Kinsler, 35, batted .236 with 22 home runs and 52 RBI’s for the Detroit Tigers in 2017 and has one year left on his contract. The Tigers are in the midst of a rebuild and may be simply looking to dump Kinsler’s $11 million salary, MetsBlog’s Matt Cerrone reports<\/a>, which would limit the return they would seek in terms of prospects. Kinsler is set to become a free agent after the 2018 season.<\/p>\n
