The Milwaukee Brewers Traded Mota from the Mets

The Brewers and the Mets have recently exchanged their players. Milwaukee sent catcher Johnny Estrada to the Mets and got reliever Guillermo Mota in exchange. Mota is a 34 year-old reliever who is coming off his ninth Major League season. His experience with the Mets ended up with 2-2 with a 5.76 ERA in 52 appearances after returning from a 50-game suspension for using performance-enhancing drugs. The Mets, in their turn, contracted Johnny Estrada to a two-year, $5 million contract that will pay $3.2 million in 2008.
