The Mets could get serious about re-signing shortstop Jose Reyes as early as this week. New York general manager Sandy Alderson "plans to reopen the lines of communication with Reyes' agents" at this week's winter meetings in Dallas. "I certainly would hope that we'll have conversations ... by the time we get to Dallas, or at Dallas," Alderson said. "I do expect to have them over the next handful of days." The Marlins have reportedly offered Reyes a six-year, $90 million deal, while the Brewers and Phillies are also believed to have interest in the free agent. "There's just a general uncertainty about the marketplace and where values are," Alderson said. "It may have something to do with the top free agents not having moved -- [Albert] Pujols and [Prince] Fielder and Jose Reyes. It may just be the dynamic between clubs and free agents. As far as the market for Jose is concerned, I only know what I read in the paper. There haven't been additional reports I've heard about other offers."
