Diamondbacks get Troy Glaus for four years for US$45m

AP , NEW YORK

Arizona went 51-111 last season, just three years after winning the World Series. The Diamondbacks tied for the 10th-most losses in major league history.

Kent, 36, hit .289 with 27 homers and 107 RBIs last season and made the NL All-Star team for the fourth time. The 2000 NL MVP has a .289 career average with 302 homers and 1,207 RBIs in 13 seasons.

"My parents did not know about this," Kent said, choking back tears, along with his parents. "I grew up with my dad taking me to Dodger games."
