RICKY GUTIERREZ TRADED TO THE METS
The Cleveland Indians sent Gutierrez to the New York Mets along with cash for a player to be named later. If you remember, Gutierrez signed that relatively big contract (3 years, 11.5 Mil) with Cleveland. He had a decent 2001 (.290/.345/.402) the year before Cleveland signed him but many people were still shocked at the deal. I find it kind of funny, although Cleveland is reportedly paying the bulk of his salary, that yet another player with a ridiculous contract is wearing a Mets uniform.
