Like A Mofo Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Trade 2/3/2004 NEW YORK (Sports Network) - The New York Yankees and New York Mets have reportedly agreed on a deal to swap lefthanded relievers. The New York Daily News reported Friday that the Yankees will re-acquire Mike Stanton from the Mets in exchange for Felix Heredia. Stanton confirmed the trade with the paper in a phone interview, and an official announcement could come as early as Friday. Two years ago, Stanton signed a three-year, $9 million contract with the Mets after rejecting a two-year, $4.6 million offer from the Yankees, who decided to sign Chris Hammond as their lefthanded setup man.

Thurman's Helmet Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Will the Yankees also get to keep the huge pitchfork sticking out of Stanton's back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OGTEleven Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Any time you can remove a Heredia from your team... 144300[/snapback] Heredia is another in a long line of pitchers that got bad at the same time Stottlemyre became his coach. Hmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VABills Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 I bet Stanton is pissed. He was looking to get some free nookie this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lofton 145218[/snapback] Nice trade for us. Lofton doesnt really have a role for us- especially when we sign Beltran. We need the releif and Rodriquez is solid. I will take his 3.29 ERA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarthur31 Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 woah.....this is groundshaking. 144298[/snapback] No surprise that other "big" name teams continue to sign Braves players since the early 90's. We have the best farm system in the world! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
