Mets deal Schoenewis to the Diamondbacks

The Mets made another trade and moved Scott Schoenewis to the Diamaondbacks for righty reliever Connor Robertson. The Mets will pick up part of Schoenewis's 3 Million dollar salary ****** The Mets will pay 1.6 Million of Scotts 3.6 M salary*******

Robertson produced a 0-1 record and 5.14 ERA in six appearances with the D-backs in 2008. He surrendered eight hits and two walks in seven innings, striking out two. In addition, he had a 7-4 record and 5.02 ERA in 47 games with the D-backs' Triple-A Tucson affiliate.


Robertson was included with Dan Haren in the Oakland-Arizona trade last December.

"We're happy to acquire Connor Robertson," Mets general manager Omar Minaya said in a statement. "He has a solid Minor League track record, and he's a good addition to our system."


Now the Mets have moved 2 major parts of the bullpen that blew up in 2008. Scott was the pitcher who gave up Wes Helms pinch hit home run in the 8th inning of the last game of the season.
