    The best deal ive made was Ollie Sanchez for Dwain Macneil.

    although Macneil will eventually become the Pujols of the league. At the time of the deal it made sense for both sides.

    Worst Deal: Dealing away Gerald Butler.

    So many trades that worked out "well", and so many trades that didnt work out so "well" which one to choose..... this wasnt the most lopsided trade in the history of the league but Id like to make one caveat to it...

    Traded from Anaheim to Minnesota on 7/31/2011 (Going to Min: P Ryan Freierbend [Later traded for 2b Mark Tobar], P Donald Degroat, C Lamont Rameriz. Going to Anh: CF Tom Loose, 3B Wilson Caballero)...

    Loose turned out to be a monster for Saber and Degroat ended up being the first piece of the puzzle for me in winning the WS. Freierbend was a joke for me and Rameriz ended up ticking me off cause of his lazy arse attitude during the offseason where he went from being #1 to being in the dog house (major loss of talent). I might like this trade a bit more if not for the dumbest trade I made...

    Traded from Minnesota to New York (N) on 2/28/2012 (Going to NYM: C Lamont Rameriz, CF Robert Prahl. Going to Min: P A.J. Burnett)...

    Whatever I was thinking at the time I plead temporary insanity, I should have seen what was going to happen and not taken the risk. All Burnett did was suck, suck, suck, make 10 mil that season, and suck some more.

    A close 2nd in the favorite deal was (also well worth the risk unlike the moronic Burnett deal)...
    Traded from Minnesota to Tampa Bay on 7/11/2013 (Going to Min: LF Brad Snyder, 3B Bryan Bass. Going to TB: P Jushira Fumihiro, C Daniel Martinez)...

    Batting Champ (flirt with 400 most of the year too) quickly shot up the charts.

    I can dig the talent boost that Daniel Martinez received.

    Aside from retorting about Martinez, I haven't mentioned any of my trades. And super lefty Crothers lately has been evoking memories of Francoheit 451.
