PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) -- New York Mets catcher Paul Lo Duca is completely healthy following offseason thumb surgery -- and he would love a contract extension.

"I've been vocal that I want to stay here," the four-time All-Star said Thursday after reporting to spring training.

Lo Duca, who will turn 35 in April, is entering the final season of a three-year deal that will pay him $6.25 million this season. He hit a team-leading .318 last year with five home runs and 49 RBIs, helping New York win the NL East for the first time since 1988.
