Former Yankee Robinson Cano appears to be headed for a DFA by the San Diego Padres. Earlier this year, Cano was released by the Mets. For the season, the 39 year old Cano is hitting just .149-1-4, OPS+ 9. He missed all of 2021 due to a suspension for steroid abuse, and the age and rust are showing. His first suspension for steroids was for half of the 2018 season. With over 2600 hits, a .301 lifetime batting average, over 330 career HR, and a career OPS+ of 125, Cano is ranked on baseball-reference.com as the 7th greatest second baseman of all-time. He won a WS ring with the 2009 Yankees. He played for the Yankees 2005-2013, Mariners 2014-2018, Mets 2019-2020 and 2022, and Padres 2022. The 8x All-Star was runner-up for ROY in 2005, and garnered MVP consideration 8x. Six times he finished in the top 10 for MVP voting, including top -six each year from 2010-2014. It’s too bad his steroid connections will keep him out of the Hall of Fame, and this season is a sad conclusion to his career.
