"Happy to still be a part of the New York Mets," he posted to Twitter. "Now it's time to get ready for Spring Training."

After a long free agency, Cespedes re-upped with the Mets on a three-year deal, reportedly with an opt-out after the 2016 season. The 30-year-old slugger cited a desire to finish what the Mets started last season, reaching the World Series before falling to the champion Royals.
