Buzz: Mets among teams to Contact Cubs

by Matthew Cerrone on September 28th, 2009 at 9:08 am

In a recent video for FoxSports.com, Ken Rosenthal lists the Mets among several teams who called the Cubs about Milton Bradley.

Rosenthal believes the Cubs will be able to deal Bradley without having to pay a large portion of his two-year, $21 million contract.

The Cubs have suspended Bradley for the remainder of this season, “for conduct detrimental to the organization,” according to the Chicago Tribune.

The 31–year-old Bradley hit .321 last season for the Rangers, but is batting .257 for the Cubs in 2009 with just 12 home runs compared to 22 home runs in 2008 – he has played with eight teams during his 10–year career.

Rosenthal also talks about whether Albert Pujols will sign a contract extension with the Cardinals; and if the Rays will trade BJ Upton.
