CINCINNATI (AP) -- Carlos Beltran has accepted a trade to the San Francisco Giants, leaving the New York Mets to join his new team after saying goodbye.

The Mets had received a 24-hour window to negotiate with the All-Star outfielder about waiving his no-trade clause. Shortly before an 8-2 win over the Reds on Wednesday night, Beltran arrived in the clubhouse and told his teammates he was on his way to join the Giants in Philadelphia.

The deal is expected to be announced Thursday morning.
