Andy Martino of the New York Daily News reports that extension talks between the Mets and David Wright and R.A. Dickey "remain very preliminary." Martino adds that the discussions "have not yet advanced to the point of discussing years or dollars," and the two sides are "still talking about when to really get talking." The Mets said at the end of the season that reaching agreements with the two players before the end of October was a possibility, but obviously the chances of that happening are now slim. That said, they clearly have plenty of time. New York has options on both players for 2013 but would like to lock them up over the long haul.
