one of my real favrites back when only 8 NL teams and us kids could see all the real stars come thru. 

AND, there were some bad trades over the years  -  Sadecki for Cepada  /  Robby for Milty Papoose - but, one of the stinkers of all times  =  Ernie Broglio for Lou Brock.  the Cards pulled down the cubbies pants on that one
