The veteran will finish his Mets career with 168 games and a.279 average with 24 home runs.

His production on the New York Yankees earlier in his career was.309 with at least a.300 average in seven of the nine seasons. During his five years with Seattle, he had eight All-Star selections, two Gold Glove Awards, five Silver Sluggers and a World Series title.

In six seasons, he finished in the top 10 of the Most Valuable Player voting.

The recent struggles could limit the market for Cano going forward.

The Mets will clear more playing time for J.D. Davis and Dominic Smith.

The collective bargaining agreement requires MLB teams to reduce their rosters from 28 to 26 by Monday. Yoan Lopez was optioned to Triple-A by the Mets to satisfy the requirement.
