The Mets have considered moving Cabrera to third base and Jose Reyes to shortstop, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

Cabrera is hitting just .248/.327/.366 on the year, and ongoing knee issues may be contributing to declining work in the field. Manager Terry Collins recently said Reyes "hates" manning third base, though the 33-year-old infielder disputes that notion. However, the club is hesitant to force Cabrera to switch positions because it's believed he's against the idea. If New York tries the swap even for a brief stretch, though, it could cement both players' dual eligibility for this and, if it sticks, next season.
