The MetroStars have re-acquired Paul Grafer, getting him from San Jose for Ramiro Corrales. How did Grafer end up on the Earthquakes? According to the MetroStars, "San Jose selected [Grafer] earlier this afternoon in a special MLS Draft for his rights". We always knew Paul Grafer was special.

Grafer started two regular season, three playoff, and one open cup games for the Metros last season when Mike Ammann was injured and Tim Howard was in Sydney. Grafer turned in a couple of terrible performances, but a couple of brilliant ones as well, helping Metros sweep Dallas for their first MLS playoff series win.
