ARROYO FIRES AGENT, HIRES FRANCESA

After weeks of hearing his name mentioned on the Mike and the Mad Dog radio program, Bronson Arroyo has decided to finally take action. Learning that co-host Mike Francesa has been seeking a trade for Arroyo to a certain New York team with a penchant for making postseason appearances, Arroyo inquired with his agent and was unable to get the same deal. On Thursday afternoon, Arroyo took action, dismissing his agent of 9 years and inking with Francesa Management. "He's had 3 wins in a row, he's 4-4, he strikes out a man an inning..there's going to be teams lining up for him," Francesa said upon completion of the deal with Arroyo. Stay tuned for further details.
