The New York Mets have traded outfielder Alexander Canario to the Pittsburgh Pirates for cash considerations, the Pirates announced Monday.
Canario was designated for assignment Thursday hours before the Mets\' season opener. He had traveled with the club from spring training in Florida to Houston last week to participate in the Mets\' workout Wednesday, but the team\'s outfield glut rendered him a long shot to make the roster.
