Sandy Alderson, a veteran Major League Baseball executive, is reportedly in talks with the New York Mets about becoming their next general manager. Alderson made a name for himself during his long tenure as the GM of the Oakland Athletics (1983-1997). Former Diamondbacks GM Josh Byrnes, ex-Royals GM Allard Baird and White Sox assistant GM Rick Hahn had been mentions as potential replacements to Omar Minaya, who was fired at the start of the week after a disappointing losing season.
