Stays in the same League, but goes to a better team. Tough to say it matters.

Canseco seeks trade for personal reasonsAssociated Press
RENO, Nev. -- Jose Canseco, making his return to professional baseball in the minor leagues, has asked to be traded from the San Diego Surf Dawgs after playing one game.

Jose Canseco works on his knuckleball before taking the field for the independent San Diego Surf Dawgs in Chico, Calif., on Monday.
Golden Baseball League commissioner Kevin Outcalt said negotiations are under way to send the former Major League All-Star to the Long Beach Armada, the Reno Gazette-Journal reported Wednesday.
Canseco asked to be traded because of child custody responsibilities that require him to be in the Los Angeles area for more time than he anticipated, Outcalt said.
"He found out today and it surprised everybody," Outcalt said Tuesday. "He has family responsibilities."
Outcalt said that the deal should be completed Wednesday to send him to Long Beach and that the only thing pending was who he would be traded for.
Canseco was signed to the Surf Dawgs on June 29 and said he would hit and pitch.
The former American League Rookie of the Year last played professional baseball for the Chicago White Sox in 2001. His last pitching stint came in 1993 for the Texas Rangers, when he threw one inning and gave up three runs on two hits with three walks.
The San Diego Surf Dawgs are in Reno for a three-game series against the Silver Sox.
