BOSTON (AP) ? the Boston Celtics have re-signed forward Jeff Green.

Green missed all of last season after a physical exam revealed an aortic aneurysm. He underwent surgery and became a free agent before signing Wednesday.

The 6-foot-9 Green had been expected to play a key role as a backup forward last season and is being counted on to do that next season. the Celtics obtained him from Oklahoma City in February 2011 with center Nenad Krstic and a first-round draft pick from the Los Angeles Clippers for center Kendrick Perkins and guard Nate Robinson.

In 2010-11, Green averaged 13.3 points, 4.8 rebounds and 32.4 minutes.

NEW YORK (AP) ? Johan Santana is done for the year, and to say he had an up-and-down season would be an understatement of Cy Young proportions.

Explaining that their ace is worn out from two years of rehabilitation and maintenance, the New York Mets placed Santana on the 15-day disabled list Wednesday with inflammation in his lower back and said he is not expected to pitch again in 2012.

Doctors recommended rest, but not surgery.

?I wanted to keep pitching. I felt that I could pitch. but at the same time, I?m listening to them,? Santana said. ?They said that everything that I have done has been a lot. At some point I have to take some rest. At this point I think I agree with everything and we?ve just got to make sure we stay healthy and look forward to next year.?

The Hampton Men?s Softball League is seeking two teams for its fall season. for more information, contact league president Darold Mosher at 926-4404.
