The New York Mets face a steep challenge in their upcoming effort to re-sign star shortstop Jose Reyes.

The problem: they simply do not have the money to do so. Reyes won the batting title for the NL this year and is expecting a lot of money to stay with the Mets in Queens.

After many trade rumors involving the All-Star, the Mets still have him in their sight and are looking to keep him on the squad.

For the Mets to keep the talent of Reyes, they will either have to give up a lot of their money or give up a chance to help their team in other facets of the game.

Reyes is a huge talent, but if the Mets would like to keep him, they will have to do a lot of work.
