Mets designated first baseman Julio Franco for assignment.
Franco could muster just one extra-base hit while batting .200 in 50 at-bats this season. If it came down to him or Sandy Alomar Jr., Franco should have stuck around. However, Alomar also figures to go at some point and Franco wasn't happy with such a limited role anyway. He'll try to catch on with another team and continue his quest to play until age 50.

And at the worst possible phokking time! What wif looking for a new career and all...
Do the words "professional hitter" and "veteran presence" mean nothing to these troglodytes?
