Jason Bay to the New York Mets

Another blockbuster trade has been made in the MLB. Jason Bay, who went from Pittsburg to Boston in the Manny Ramirez trade, is going to the Big Apple to play for the Mets.

Bay hit .267 with 36 home runs and 119 RBIs with the Red Sox last year. He is also a three-time All-Star with the Pirates and Red Sox. Bay will receive a little more than $80 million over five years.

Bay will join an offense that was 25th in the league in runs scored (671). Bay will be a good addition in the field along at the plate. He will join Gold Glove winner David Wright, Jose Reyes, and Carlos Delgado. All are powerful hitters that missed parts of the season due to injuries.

The Red Sox recently signed pitcher John Lackey to an $82.5 million contract and added outfielder Mike Cameron for the small price of $15 million. It was then when outfielder Bay new he was shipping out of Boston.

Bay should be a good addition to the Mets, who have been looking to make the playoffs in the tough NL East.
