Report: Mets to Restructure Yoenis Cespedes' Contract for 2020

The Mets have reached an agreement with outfielder Yoenis Cespedes to restructure his contract down from the $29.5 million he's set to make in 2020, according to the New York Post's Joel Sherman.

A source told MLB.com's Anthony DiComo, who was the first to report on the agreement, that the reduction in Cespedes' contract is "significant."

The change to Cespedes's contract is a settlement following the injuries sustained on his ranch last May. Sherman reports MLB, the players' union, the Mets and Cespedes were a part of the resolution.
