Mets acquire J.J. Putz from the Mariners

It's been made official on MLB.com, the Mets get J.J. Putz, Sean Green, & Jeremy Reed in exchange for Aaron Heilman, Endy Chavez, Joe Smith, & minor leaguer-Mike Carp.  Basically, Green is a swap with Joe Smith and Jeremy Reed is a swap with Endy Chavez.  So, as I see it, the Mets get Putz for Aaron Heilman and Mike Carp.  

I have to say I think this is a steal for the Mets.  Carp has potential, but that is nothing proven.  Heilman needed to go and Putz should do well coming to the NL.  

J.J. Putz's agent, Craig Landis, was asked today is he would be happy in the setup role for a new team.  His answer, "No."  This could be a bit of an issue, but maybe something will be worked out with his option year or something.  

I don't see it happening, but could the Mets flip Putz to another team?
