12:48pm: There are suitors for Byrd but right now, but no one seems to be willing to meet the Mets' asking price, tweets Marc Carig of Newsday. Meanwhile, Byrd is the only Mets player that has come up in trade conversations (Twitter link).
Adam Rubin of ESPNNewYork.com (on Twitter) notes that the Reds were kicking the tires on Byrd at one point but have since backed off.
12:28pm: While things were quiet on the Marlon Byrd front, the Mets are suddenly getting hits on the veteran, according to Joel Sherman of the New York Post (via Twitter). The Mets have made counteroffers to clubs and are waiting to see if anyone budges. The Pirates are believed to be among the teams interested in Byrd.
Earlier this week we heard that the Orioles also had some interest in Byrd, but the Mets were unlikely to move him unless they were really blown away by an offer. This morning, the Mets were contending that they still weren't planning to make any moves, but things might have changed this afternoon.
