Mets Land Conine - At Last!!!!

The Mets are about to announce the acquisition of Jeff Conine from the Cincinnati Reds for two Class-A players, according to Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports.Net. We have long hoped to acquire this veteran utility player, who has been part of 2 World Series Championship clubs with the Marlins and has been playing in relative obscurity with the Reds. With the loss of Easley, probably for the season, and Delgado still hurting, this is the right move at the right time!! Way to go, Omar!!!

By the way - Conine is batting .265 with six home runs and 32 RBIs in 80 games this season for the Reds.
