Ike Davis is available in trades, according to the Post's Joel Sherman.

Sherman tweets:

"Fascinating is #Mets r talking with suitors seriously about Ike Davis. #Rangers, #Pirates need 1B. Tex in particular is known to like Ike. Obviously, if traded, Davis would have to pass physical with ankle, but #Mets insist he is fully healthy. #Mets prioritty is if can get higher-ceiling plyrs for long-term anyone, but Wright, can go. Davis can do that more than Pelfrey or Murphy."

For the record, the Rays also need a power-hitting first baseman who costs little.

I wouldn't be automatically alarmed. Last year physical discovered anemia w/ Ronny Paulino. But it's often just a minor blood reading off.
