The Anna Benson trade worked out great--it got John Maine for the Mets

Thus, you can trace the Mets' presence in Game 7 all the way back to a low-cut Christmas outfit. That was the last thread in Met management's disgusted eyes in the inappropriate acts of Mrs. Benson, showing up at a team charity function scantily clad as Mrs. Claus. The Mets traded her husband to Baltimore and took a flyer on a hard-throwing-but-erratic reliever named Jorge Julio. It seemed that Maine was nothing more than another name to balance out the trade.
