The Cubs trading Lou Brock to St Louis for Ernie Broglio.

Finally, something the Cubs can win.

Here`s one.

December 10, 1971 - The New York Mets trade pitchers Nolan Ryan, Don Rose, catcher Frank Estrada, and outfielder Leroy Stanton to the California Angels for shortstop Jim Fregosi.

Certainly the worse of all trades in Chicago. But I have a feeling there are a few that have not come to their conclusion, like Geo for Nick the Dick Swisher and a couple of more KW made..But one of his Gifts will have to get to the Hall

KW is the hands down winner for the worst waiver pick up ever (Rios).

Considering the career of Smoltz yes, but I remember ol' Doyle helping the Tigers very much down the stretch run

The 1993 trade that sent Pedro Martinez to Montreal for Delino DeShields continues to produce the loudest moans, with obvious justification.
