With just 18 days left until pitchers and catchers report, Bobby Abreu is still looking for a new outfield wall to be scared of. With not many takers, Abreu has lowered his expectations.

ESPN is reporting (behind the Insider wall, so I’m getting my information from MLB Trade Rumors.com), that Abreu is now backing off of his demands of $16 million per year. Instead, he is willing to accept a deal around $10-11 million over three years.

MLBTR thinks that this could now bring the Dodgers, Reds or Braves into the mix, but cautions that they may all still balk at even $10 million.

If the Mets were smart, they would sign him, use Ryan Church in left field, and forget their terrible idea of using Fernando Tatis as a starter.
