Buzz: Castro likes Mets, Rockies like Castro

In the Daily News, Adam Rubin writes that free-agent C Ramon Castro ‘loves’ New York, and wants to remain with the Mets.

…be careful with this quote, though…i mean, if castro is offered a deal to be a starting catcher in another city, will he love the Mets so much that he’s willing to return as a back-up…i’m betting, despite his ‘love,’ he’d leave in a heartbeat

According to Rubin, ‘Castro is expected to command a two-year deal somewhere.’

Meanwhile, according to Joel Sherman in the New York Post, the Rockies have interest in Castro, as well as free-agent C Paul Lo Duca and Jose Molina, in the event they lose free-agent C Yorvit Torrealba.

By the way, Rubin also provides a variety of other interesting notes from yesterday’s first day at the GM Meetings in Orlando, so check it out.
