The nine major pro sports teams haven't had it quite as bad as the Indians and Cubs, but they've all experienced varying degrees of their own droughts.
Yes, I'm still for the Mets re-signing Cespedes. But I must admit that I'm no longer convinced that it's a no-brainer. It's not as clear cut of a decision as it may seem.
Well-documented is the fact that the Mets' offense doesn't go without Cespedes. What's more, they have no one else like him.
Cespedes will reportedly opt out of the final two years of the three-year, $75 million contract he signed last January and hit the open market.
While there is still hope Cespedes and the Amazins could work out a deal, it's also possible the Mets might have to sign another power hitter to replace him.

Tim Tebow may have homered on the first pitch he saw in the instructional league, but it's been all downhill since.
Collins, who at 67 is the oldest manager in Major League Baseball, cited the physical demands of the job as the main reason he's considering calling it a career.
If it's any indication of the NYC area sports scene, WFAN's Boomer & Carton were talking Yale soccer Wednesday morning.
Tim Tebow hit a ball through the left side of the infield, looped another to the same area. He fouled off a pitch and sent a grounder the other way.
Whatever else happens at the start of the free agent period, the winter meetings and beyond, two Mets who disappointed in Wednesday night's wild-card loss must return: Yoenis Cespedes and Jeurys Familia.
Cubs fans have a long and deep pessimistic streak, and their fears are being fanned by the 108-year slump since their last World Series title. The Mets have had a big hand in that.
Wednesday night was brutal. Horrible. Painful. From start to finish, with every pitch and every at-bat, it was absolutely excruciating -- for many reasons beyond the obvious.
WFAN's Mike Francesa opened his show Thursday by discussing Madison Bumgarner's dominating pitching performance that helped the Giants defeat the Mets in Wednesday night's National League wild-card game.
