NEW YORK - Randy Johnson, Carlos Beltran, Shawn Green, Derek Lowe, Javier Vazquez and Juan Gonzalez finally got to their new teams following weeks of negotiations.

Dioner Navarro, a 20-year-old catcher with seven major league at-bats, even got traded twice Tuesday.

On a day when the Mets and Yankees combined for a news conference doubleheader, baseball dominated the New York sports scene, even with the Jets getting ready for their second-round matchup with Pittsburgh in the NFL playoffs.

In the morning at Shea Stadium, the Mets announced their $119 million, seven-year contract with center fielder Carlos Beltran, the 10th deal in baseball history worth $100 million or more. The new-look Mets already have added three-time Cy Young Award winner Pedro Martinez and might try to sign Carlos Delgado.

"I call it the new Mets because this organization is going to a different direction, the right direction, the direction of winning," Beltran said.

Three hours later, the Yankees introduced Johnson, a five-time Cy Young Award winner, after acquiring him from Arizona for Vazquez, Navarro, pitcher Brad Halsey and $9 million. The Big Unit, who got a $32 million, two-year contract extension through 2007, quickly apologized for getting into a sidewalk confrontation with a television cameraman en route to his physical the previous day.

"It was unprofessional and, obviously, I feel very foolish today, at such a great moment in my career, that I would have to sit before all of you, or stand before all you, and apologize for my actions," he said.

Arizona then dealt Navarro and right-handers William Juarez, Danny Muegge and Beltran Perez to Los Angeles for Green and $10 million.

"We had said for some time if we were to make a decision to trade Randy Johnson, which was a difficult decision to be sure, that we wanted to obtain good starting pitching and another front-line player as a minimum," Diamondbacks managing partner Ken Kendrick said. "We think we achieved our goal with Javy and with Shawn."

Green got a $32 million, three-year contract from the Diamondbacks. He has a .314 average and .629 slugging percentage at Bank One Ballpark with 14 homers and 40 RBI in 175 at-bats, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

"I couldn't be happier with the change for me," Green said. "The team that I was really hoping would work out is Arizona. It's my favorite park to play in and it's my favorite city to come to. It was a perfect fit for me and for my family."
