Mets: Remembering the Johan Santana trade and what it meant

The New York Mets were awarded their sole no-hitter on June 1, 2012, when Johan Santana hurled nine hitless innings on 134 pitchers. In order to remember that splendid game on its anniversary, here is a look back upon the trade the Mets made to acquire him.
