Report: Mets agree with Cora

It appears the Mets have found their replacement for utility infielder Damion Easley. Boston radio station WEEI reported late Tuesday night that the Amazin’s have agreed to terms on a one-year, $2 million deal with Alex Cora. Cora, 33, spent the past 3 1/2 seasons with Boston and hit .270 with a .371 OBP in 75 games at shortstop and second base for the Red Sox last year. He is considered a decent fielder and adds yet another left-handed bat to the Mets’ large stable of lefty hitters.
