UPDATE: Anthony DiComo of MLB.com was told by ?two people involved? to not expect resolution with Dickey tonight. Things could always change, but it appears he?ll remain with the Mets for at least one more day.
5:45 PM: FOX Sports? Jon Paul Morosi reports that the Mets and Blue Jays have made progress on a possible trade involving Dickey. However, it?s not a done deal yet.
Also, updating a previous story by Joel Sherman, Andy Martino of the New York Daily News writes that reports suggesting Dickey wouldn?t sign a contract extension with the Jays are false.
4:29 PM: Jon Heyman is hearing that the players coming back from Toronto ? assuming a deal can get done ? are?J.P. Arencibia and Anthony Gose, though that may just be speculation, as those two have been talked about in trades involving the Blue Jays for some time. And let?s keep in mind that this is all fluid and depend on Dickey being willing to sign an extension. We think. As we learned with the Shin-Soo Choo trade earlier this week, early reports may only be capturing part of the story.
Rosenthal says the Rangers are OUT on Dickey.
4:05 PM: Joel Sherman reports that the Mets and Blue Jays are far along in trade talks for Dickey ? and a deal could be close ? but that things are being held up by Dickey?s refusal to agree to sign a contract extension with Toronto. Now, he needn?t sign off on the trade ? he has no no-trade protection ? but obviously the Jays would be far more willing to give up real value to the Mets if they can lock up Dickey for what will, presumably, be three years instead of just 2013.
Updates, obviously, as warranted.
3:30 PM: In case you didn?t think that the Mets were serious about trading R.A. Dickey:
The Rangers have been talked about as a possible trade partner with the Mets for a couple of days. The Jays and Orioles, not so much.
