Mets did nothing wrong in Cabrera situation

The team told Cabrera that he would play second base primarily when he returned from the disabled list on Friday.

His reaction was to request a trade.

Cabrera is crazy to think that another team would be willing to play the 31-year-old everyday at one of the most demanding positions. He said he should have been told about the position change while he was rehabbing from his injury so that he could play the position during his minor league rehab assignment.

But, Cabrera only played two rehab games though, and one of them was as a designated hitter.
