In a post to his blog for Newsday, Ken Davidoff says that free agent Yorvit Torrealba is keeping contact with the Rockies, but has also spoken to the Giants and Blue Jays.
In addition, Davidoff says both the Marlins and Rays “are on the periphery.”
…Torrealba would be a good fit for the Mets but given what happened a couple of years ago when they pulled their contract offer and Torrealba apparently still being upset over the ordeal, I would be amazed if the Mets jumped into these sweepstakes…
For more on Torrealba, check out Davidoff’s post here.

I don’t see why Torrealba would be a “good fit” for the Mets. He has a lifetime .318 OBP and his percentages throwing out runners is on the decline. Plus, he is not young (32). We don’t have to replace Schneider with an equally overrated and overpaid catcher.
Agree. I would rather have Barajas or Molina.
