Milledge To Replace Franco

Ken Davidoff at Newsday writes about Lastings Milledge replacing Julio Franco on the active roster:

The Mets are expected to remove Julio Franco from their roster today to make room for Lastings Milledge, Newsday has learned. An announcement will be made before today's game.

It's not clear whether Franco, who turns 48 next month, will retire, or whether he'll accept an unconditional release and try to find a job elsewhere.
