The San Diego Padres are currently discussing a deal with veteran free agent Robinson Cano, according to ESPN’s Jon Heyman.
Cano, 39, was released earlier this week by the New York Mets. In 12 games this season, Cano batted .195 with one home run and three RBI’s.
Cano has played for the New York Yankees, Seattle Mariners and Mets throughout his career.
This season, Cano split time between second base and designated hitter. The move would give the team some extra depth at both those positions.
