From Heyman today.... ] Edgardo Alfonzo has requested a trade from Anaheim after accepting the deal there under the belief he'd be in the third-base mix. "It hasn't really worked out the way we hoped," agent Peter Greenberg said. "We think the Mets would be the perfect spot." We'd love to see Alfonzo back at Shea. But although there was talk of a Kaz Matsui-for-Alfonzo swap, Alfonzo's trade value has diminished as he's struggled adjusting to a limited role.
