Mets general manager Omar Minaya walked into Dominic's, an Italian restaurant in the Hill section of St. Louis along with Jeff Wilpon, Tony Bernazard and some of their top staff following the Game 5 rainout in the NL championship series. "There was nobody around," Wilpon said Tuesday. "Maybe three or four tables. Tony was like `Are we allowed to talk?' It was that quiet." Even as the Mets were playing St. Louis in NLCS, they already are meeting to focus on the free-agent market and building their roster for 2007.
