In a surprise move on Wednesday, the New York Mets announced that they have traded Oliver Perez and Luis Castillo to the NYC Department of Sanitation to assist in snow removal. The terms of the deal haven't been entirely released but it is being rumored that the Mets will receive cash considerations and a special unlimited gold Metrocard for Fred Wilpon. Embiggen

I thought Bloomberg wanted to avoid scandal
Associated with overpaying people to do nothing? This makes no sense Apple. None. Plus, Ollie would perhaps be better purposed as a plow.

Wow
I thought I was clever, but yeah, this is a lot better. Nicely done.

Come to think of it, civil service would be perfect for Ollie.
It is damn near impossible to get fired from civil service jobs.

Do'h. Stupid 'enter' key
As I was saying, Ollie’d be no good at shoveling snow. He’d get sent out there with 3 inches on the ground, and somehow turn that into 7 inches.

This is also very well done.
Except you forget one thing. After he turns it into 7, he would be awesome at making snow ice cream. Ice cream: what Ollie does best.

Looks like the snow is about to fall out of Castillo's shovel.
Typical.

Speaking of my post immediately above
Where did you get the photo of the 1986 World Series championship party that you used in this photoshop?
