But, I digress, let's get back to the green...
Shawn Green's career with the Diamondbacks appears to have come to an end.
A baseball source told MLB.com that the veteran outfielder was dealt along with cash considerations to the Mets on Tuesday in exchange for a Minor League player. Green, the source said, agreed to waive his no-trade clause and the deal is now in the hands of the Commissioner's office, which has to approve it because of the money involved.
Green arrived at AT&T Park on Tuesday afternoon and was seen on the field hugging teammate Craig Counsell and a Diamondbacks coach.
It is not known exactly how much money will change hands in the deal, or who the Minor Leaguer is. Green is set to make $9.5 million (wow thatsa lotta spinich)
next year with a club option for the 2008 season at $10 million. If the option is not exercised, Green would receive a $2 million buyout.
Green is hitting .283 with 11 homers and 51 RBIs this season.
But Green may soon arrive in the greatest city in the world.
A city turned around by Rudy!
The Mets and Yankees sit on top of thier respective divisions
