Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said Sunday that he's "not sure" if the team will offer Brian Wilson a contract. The Mets held a private throwing session for Wilson Saturday, and USA Today's Bob Nightengale said the team has "strong interest" in the closer. Evidently, though, it's not even a given that they'll extend him an offer. Wilson, of course, is coming back from Tommy John surgery but expects to be ready to go for Opening Day.

USA Today's Bob Nightengale reports that the Mets have "strong interest" in Brian Wilson. Nightengale notes that Mets general manager Sandy Alderson watched Wilson during a private workout Saturday. It's not clear whether he threw off a mound during the workout, which is something he's expected to be cleared to do soon. The Mets would give Wilson their closer job, sending Frank Francisco to a setup role. "The Beard" is reportedly drawing interest from 9-10 clubs.

The San Francisco Chronicle's Henry Schulman reports that Brian Wilson (elbow) has completed his long-toss program and could throw off a mound soon. So far, so good for the bearded closer, who has been told by Dr. James Andrews that he should be cleared for spring training and be ready by opening day. Schulman notes that the Giants are "still open to signing Wilson to a low base, high incentives" deal, but the righty is "keeping his deliberations on a new team close to the vest." He'll likely wait to sign until he shows teams he can throw off the mound with no issues.

According to Scott Miller of CBSSports.com, Brian Wilson is generating plenty of interest on the free agent market, with as many as nine or 10 teams interested. Wilson isn't close to signing anywhere, but has narrowed his list down to around five teams. The former Giants closer has been told by Dr. James Andrews that he will be cleared for spring training and be ready by opening day.

Yahoo! Sports' Tim Brown hears that Brian Wilson (elbow) has been told by Dr. James Andrews that he will be cleared for spring training and be ready by Opening Day. It's been the sense all along, but it's good to have more clarity. Wilson was non-tendered by the Giants last week but shouldn't have trouble landing at the back-end of a bullpen somewhere, though he'll likely have to accept an incentive-laden, short-term deal.

According to Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times, the Dodgers are not expected to pursue Brian Wilson. Wilson has been linked to the Dodgers as a possible landing spot, but Hernandez was told by a source familiar with the team's thinking that they aren't looking to sign him. The Dodgers appear set to go forward with Brandon League, Kenley Jansen and Ronald Belisario in the back-end of their bullpen. Coming off Tommy John surgery, Wilson's market this offseason remains to be seen. The San Francisco Chronicle reported Saturday that Wilson has "zero interest" in returning to the Giants.

According to Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle, Brian Wilson has "zero interest" in re-signing with the Giants. The Giants non-tendered Wilson, but haven't ruled out bringing back him on an incentive-laden deal. However, multiple sources tell Schulman that the 30-year-old right-hander is upset with the organization's decision to release him and has told people he will sign elsewhere. Wilson is expected to be fully recovered from Tommy John surgery in time for the 2013 season. He figures to land a deal similar to Ryan Madson's one-year, $3.5 million contract in free agency.

Giants non-tendered RHP Brian Wilson. It appears Wilson's tenure in San Francisco is coming to a close, as he is now free to negotiate with any team. There's been some chatter that the Dodgers and Red Sox could have interest, but there will surely be more teams involved. The 30-year-old right-hander is expected to be fully recovered from Tommy John surgery in time for the 2013 season.

According to Scott Lauber of the Boston Herald, the Red Sox "may" have interest in Brian Wilson. Wilson will be non-tendered by the Giants on Friday, officially making him a free agent. The 30-year-old right-hander is said to prefer to continue his career on the West Coast, but he's a native of New Hampshire and will probably be open to heading back east if the price is right. Wilson is expected to be recovered from Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery by Opening Day 2013.

Tim Brown of Yahoo! Sports hears that Brian Wilson's first choice is to pitch for the Dodgers if a deal can't be worked out with the Giants. The Giants are expected to non-tender Wilson before Friday's deadline, so he'll soon be free to negotiate with any team. Wilson lives in Los Angeles during the offseason, so the Dodgers make sense as a potential fit, but the Red Sox have also been mentioned as a possibility. He'll likely have to accept an incentive-laden deal coming back from Tommy John surgery.
