What if Ken Griffey Jr. had accepted his trade to the New York Mets in 2000?

Error 0:

Ken Griffey Jr. and the New York Mets were close to crossing their paths back in 2000, when the Flushing squad went to the World Series and lost to the Yankees there.

It’s hard to imagine, though! Griffey was the game’s true superstar of the nineties, he was almost as big as his sport.

Thinking about a lineup including Mike Piazza, Edgardo Alfonzo, Griffey and company is sure entertaining.
Griffey ended up going to the Cincinnati Reds, and the Seattle Mariners got Mike Cameron, Brett Tomko and Antonio Perez in exchange.
