Mets Contact Konerko, Minaya Said to Be Aggresive in Hot Stove

I read over at the Hardball Times that the Mets have made contact with Paul Konerko. First base has been a sink hole for the Mets, and if while I think Konerko will end up back in Chicago, you have to give the front office some credit for their efforts.

And based on this column, it looks like the Mets are going to be aggresive in the free agent market. Not too surprising, since the Mets have the makings of a championship ballclub and that there's no luxury tax this year for first time offenders.
