    Not impressed by Victor Zambrano's 12-14 mark while he was with the Mets.

    Someone should get fired over that one!

    Yeah, Rick Petersen said it take him 10 minutes to fix Victor...we were better off with Apodaca as the pitching coach. Geez!

    Victor is 0-6 with a 9++ ERA with the AAA Rockies! It might actually go down as one of the worst trades in baseball history.

    P.S. That last card was the sweetest of the bunch in a torturous way...

    Edit: On the bright side, we should be able to pluck him right back from you cheapskates as soon as he's free agent eligible.

    That trade was one of the few things Chuck LaMar got credit for while he was the GM.

    Nice one Goot. lol

    I don't think I would ever want to start a thread about the Dodgers and an up and coming Rookie Pitcher named Pedro. image

    Or how bout this one,


    << <i>Dodger scouts in the Dominican Republic were first in line to sign Vladimir Guerrero. Five hundred dollars, however, separated Guerrero from what the Dodgers were offering. The Dodgers ended up with his piece of crap brother Wilton, and Vladimir, of course, signed with Montreal, where he's gone on to put up hall-of-fame numbers. They'll spend $6 million on Gregg Olson, but won't shell out another $500 for a promising young outfielder. Of course, Vladimir would haunt the Dodgers again in 2004, this time signing with the Angels after the unresolved Dodger ownership situation prevented Dan Evans from offering him a deal.

    I'm sure every team has dealed someone who they realized later it was a bad deal.

    He just signed a 3 year extension for $28.5 million with an option through 2012. We USED to be cheapskates.

    Sure glad the Phillies never did anything stupid like that with Ferguson Jenkins or Ryne Sandburg.

    IIRC, they Rays locked up Kazmir for a 4 year extension at $11 million per.
