Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said on MLB Network on Wednesday that Stephen Drew could wait into the regular season to sign with a team. FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal floated the very same scenario over the weekend, as Drew would not be attached to draft pick compensation if he waits until after June's draft in order to sign with a team. Nelson Cruz recently settled for a one-year, $8 million contract with the Orioles, but it's unclear whether Drew will be willing to take a similar "pillow" contract. Alderson acknowledged Wednesday that the Mets are a logical fit for the veteran shortstop, but that they are still weighing the various factors involved.
