Aug 19, 2017 - 8:32 AM OF Curtis Granderson was traded by the Mets to the Los Angeles Dodgers late Friday night, along with cash considerations, in exchange for a player to be named later and/or cash considerations. Granderson, who is batting .228 with 19 homers and 52 RBIs in 111 games this season, gained 33 games in the standings by going to the National League-leading Dodgers, where he will likely fill the fourth outfielder role. The deal ends a four-season tenure in New York for Granderson, who was one of the few big-name free agent signings to work out for the Mets. Granderson batted .239 with 95 homers and 247 RBIs while playing in 573 out of a possible 606 regular season games for the Mets since signing following the 2013 season. He also hit .283 with three homers and 12 RBIs in 14 playoff games during the Mets' World Series run in 2015.
