This was before my time but the guy still played well into the 70's. The Cubs trade of Lou Brock for Ernie Broglio. When I was a young one everytime Brock would come up in game against the Cubs my dad would immediately change the channel cause he couldnt take watching Brock bat. This has to be top 5 if not the top worst trade of all time in any sport.

If Nathan and Liriano continue down the paths they are on now and have long healthy careers, you really could make a case for this as worst trade ever!

Bruce Sutter to the Cards for Ken Reitz and Leon Durham. Even though Durham was decent Sutter was the best closer of his era.
