The Associated Press has just reported that the owners of the Chicago White Sox have agreed to sell the entire team to the NY Mets - for $743 and 2 large bags of bananas.
When asked about his plans for the White Sox players he is acquiring, Omar Minaya said that 4 White Sox players - all infielders - will be re-employed as hot dog vendors in the left field loge level. The remainder of the team will be working field maintenance through the end of this season.
Additionally - Ozzie Guillen has agreed - as part of the deal - to remain with the Mets as an assistant bathroom attendant in the luxury box section of Shea Stadium.
