Cespedes to honor deal with Mets despite opt-out clause (Yahoo Sports)

Yoenis Cespedes says he has no plans to exercise an opt-out clause in his contract with the New York Mets. The outfielder from Cuba is in the first year of a three-year, $75 million deal that has an escape clause after the first season. ''I've said it before, my intentions of course are to be here for three years, and if I could spend the rest of my career with the Mets, I would,'' Cespedes said.
