News: Mets Reacquire Pagan

by Evan Drellich on January 5th, 2008 at 2:51 pm

According to The Associated Press, the Mets reacquired OF Angel Pagan from the Cubs on Saturday in exchange for two minor leaguers: OF Corey Coles and RHP Ryan Meyers.

Pagan, 26, has a .255 batting average and nine home runs in 318 career major league at-bats.

He was originally drafted by the Mets in 1999 and spent his first six professional seasons in the Mets organization before being sold to the Cubs in January 2006.

…bringing pagan back adds some outfield depth at an inexpensive price, but needless to say, it’s not an earth-shattering move…

…for those Cyclones fans out there, you may remember pagan as the star player on the inaugural 2001 team…
