According to the Denver Post and New York Daily News, the Mets have expressed interest in Rockies closer Brian Fuentes. Adam Rubin says nothing is imminent. Troy E. Renck points out that the Rox turned down an offer of Aaron Heilman during the winter.
Fuentes figures to be a hot commodity this summer, so the Rockies may take their time and field offers. The Mets do have a few decent prospects aside from Fernando Martinez.
