Random Met - Greg McMichael


Hard to believe its been 10 years since Greg McMichael was on the Mets.


Seems like he was a human yo-yo in the trade wars..take a look at this:

April 16, 1991: Signed as a Free Agent with the Atlanta Braves.

November 25, 1996: Traded by the Atlanta Braves to the New York Mets for a player to be named later and Paul Byrd. The New York Mets sent Andy Zwirchitz (minors) (May 25, 1997) to the Atlanta Braves to complete the trade.



June 4, 1998: Traded by the New York Mets with Dave Mlicki to the Los Angeles Dodgers for Brad Clontz and Hideo Nomo.

July 10, 1998: Traded by the Los Angeles Dodgers with cash to the New York Mets for Brian Bohanon.

July 31, 1999: Traded by the New York Mets with Jason Isringhausen to the Oakland Athletics for Billy Taylor.

Interesting...Traded twice within a month...Betcha there are tons of McMichael Dodger jerseys STILL collecting dust in the .99 Cent Stores across the world...The Mets should be trading one pitcher named Ollie Perez -- and take cash -- even if it is counterfeit Cuban currency.

Looks like McMichael is extremely religious: http://www.thegoal.com/players/baseball/mcmichael_greg/mcmichael_greg.html
