KJC Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Blue Jays trade Fred McGriff and Tony Fernandez to the Padres for Joe Carter and Roberto Alomar its probably not the best just the first big one i could think of that every player produced in the bigs at one time or another...

SorianoFanHFW Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Soriano- A Rod is going to be big for both teams. But that's recent I admit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJC Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 we could honestly see both players starting in the All Star game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJC Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Zeile for Eisenriech is a wash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Fry Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 whatcha got? McGriff & Fernandez for Carter & Alomar still, to this day, sticks out in my mind first among blockbuster trades. Although, the all-time champ should still be Babe Ruth for the price of an entire franchise (back in the '20s). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBurque Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 If we're talking all sports, you gotta throw the Gretzky trade in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSwift25 Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 If we're talking player traded in his prime, it's Gretzky to LA, if we're talking magnitude of money/name value it's the Piazza Zeile/Sheffield, Bonilla, CJ, Eisenreich deal.

TSwift25 Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 Here's what ESPN has to say about the Gretzky trade and Sheffield Piazza trade: Wayne Gretzky: Oilers to Kings Aug. 9, 1988: The Edmonton Oilers traded Gretzky, D Marty McSorley and C Mike Krushelnyski to the Los Angeles Kings for C Jimmy Carson, LW Martin Gelinas, first-round picks in 1989, 1991 and 1993 and cash. The other end of the trade was a little light, but no deal was more shocking than this one. The "Great One" was just 27 and in his prime as the most dominant hockey player of all time when Edmonton, which was short on cash, traded him after winning its fourth Stanley Cup of the 1980s. Mike Piazza: Dodgers to Marlins May 15, 1998: The Los Angeles Dodgers traded Piazza and 3B Todd Zeile to the Florida Marlins for OF Gary Sheffield, 3B Bobby Bonilla, C Charles Johnson, OF Jim Eisenreich and P Manny Barrios. This midnight deal came out of nowhere after Piazza had reportedly turned down a long-term deal from the Dodgers. The trade involved four All-Stars (Piazza, Sheffield, Bonilla and Johnson), and at the time Piazza was one of the three or four most valuable players in the game. Piazza spent just a week in Florida before he was traded to the Mets for three minor leaguers. http://espn.go.com/page2/s/biggesttrades/031216.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best catchers to come out of the 90+ have played for the fish ... i think thats a good fact Benito CJ Piazza Pudge all we need is Posada.
