-MLB Trade Rumors is reporting that the Chicago White Sox will sign veteran shortstop Omar Vizquel to a one-year deal.
-Vizquel spent time with the Texas Rangers last season, hitting .266 with one home run and fourteen runs batted in.
-The site is also stating that Adam Rubin, a Mets beat reporter, has confirmed that the Mets have interest in Athletics DH/OF Jack Cust.
-Jack Cust is often a valuable power threat, but has been towards the league cellar in strike outs over the past few season.
-A Mets move to acquier Cust would seem to be similar to the Yankees trade for Nick Swisher last year, giving them a steady play to serve in the outfield or off the bench.
