philly might have been pratt for bennett either.

duan Jul 12 2005 04:54 PM

oakland - was it t long for rogers or taylor for isringhousen?

SI Metman Jul 12 2005 05:29 PM

KC was the 3 way with the Bucs that sent Benson and Keppinger here and Huber there. Oakland had to be Justice-Guthrie/Yates Houston was Hidalgo for Weathers. I believe Wheeler was a waiver claim.

seawolf17 Jul 12 2005 05:33 PM

STL: Cedeno for Wilson Delgado

ScarletKnight41 Jul 12 2005 07:30 PM

I thought that Phil Siebel came from Montreal in the trade that brought Strickland to New York.

Edgy DC Jul 12 2005 08:20 PM

Yup, you're right. A lot of launchers changed hands with that one.

SI Metman Jul 12 2005 09:15 PM

getting specific on the Kazmir trade: Scott Kazmir and Joselo Diaz for Victor Zambrano and Bartolomo Fortunato I wanna take a shot at the Alomar trade and say: Matt Lawton, Billy Traber, Jerrod Riggan, Alex Escobar and Snyder for Alomar, Peoples and Bacsik Florida: Piazza trade for Ed Yarnall, Geoff Goetz and Preston Wilson? Toronto: Mookie for Musselman? San Diego: Bobby M. Jones and Jason Bay for Steve Reed and Jason Middlebrook?

SI Metman Jul 12 2005 09:22 PM

The Cedeno trade also brought back Chris Widger along with Wilson Delgado Colorado: I'm thinking Mark Little came back with Thompson for Satan Arizona: I'm thinking that same Mark Little was involved in the last D-backs trade. Cinci: Estes for Raul Gonzalez and 3 others if anyone else can remember them. Cubbies: Brian McRae, Smell Blojas and Turk Wendell for Lance Johnson, Manny Alexander and Mark Clark

Johnny Dickshot Jul 12 2005 09:23 PM

Sorry for the incompletes. I was in a rush this afternoon and figured you only wanted to ID the trades. The missing guy in the KC deal was Jose Bautista The deal with Houston was Wheeler for roided up outfielder Adam Suess The SI Metman ided Joselo Diaz as the missing guy in the TB trade; the same Jo Diaz came along with Vic Diaz in the Burnitz to LA trade (which was trumped this spring by Ishii-Phillips as noted). Oakland: Justice for Guthrie and (edit) Yates (SI MM got that above) The Estes-to-Cincy deal was Feliciano, Gonzalez and Brady Clark

Johnny Dickshot Jul 12 2005 09:30 PM

Was Atlanta Paul Byrd for McMichael?

Edgy DC Jul 12 2005 09:46 PM

Now we're playing with wood bats. Starting with the Metman. ]Scott Kazmir and Joselo Diaz for Victor Zambrano and Bartolomo Fortunato Bingo! This was also the greatest trade the Mets have ever made ]Matt Lawton, Billy Traber, Jerrod Riggan, Alex Escobar and Snyder for Alomar, Peoples and Bacsik Bingo! ]Florida: Piazza trade for Ed Yarnall, Geoff Goetz and Preston Wilson? And thus ends the winning streak. ]Toronto: Mookie for Musselman? Now we know that's not true. ]San Diego: Bobby M. Jones and Jason Bay for Steve Reed and Jason Middlebrook? Not quite there. ]The Cedeno trade also brought back Chris Widger along with Wilson Delgado Bingo! ]Colorado: I'm thinking Mark Little came back with Thompson for Satan I still need more. ]Arizona: I'm thinking that same Mark Little was involved in the last D-backs trade. One package does not a trade make. ]Cinci: Estes for Raul Gonzalez and 3 others if anyone else can remember them. Somebody can. ]Cubbies: Brian McRae, Smell Blojas and Turk Wendell for Lance Johnson, Manny Alexander and Mark Clark Bingo! But the Blojas thing wasn't that funny. This trade is still very interesting to me. Back to Johnny Dickshot ]The missing guy in the KC deal was Jose Bautista I'll give you a Bingo!, as he was the missing guy in the Pittsburgh trade after being acquired from Kansas City, and I think that's what you meant. KC is still on the board, though. ]The deal with Houston was Wheeler for roided up outfielder Adam Suess Bingo! ]The Estes-to-Cincy deal was Feliciano, Gonzalez and Brady Clark Still another guy out there, Bishop. ]Was Atlanta Paul Byrd for McMichael? Bingo!

hang on I demand a recount; Jose Bautista was NEVER involved with the mets, what the Pirates did with Huber when they got him is NOTHING to do with us ;)

sharpie Jul 13 2005 05:15 PM

Cincy I'm going with Shaun Estes for Pedro Feliciano and Elvin Anderson and (later) Raul Gonzalez and Brady Clark.

And Pods I'm going with Bubba Trammell for Donne Walle.

metsmarathon Jul 13 2005 05:35 PM

did we trade scott erickson to texas, or did they pick him up after he was released? or did he not go to texas last year after we were through with him, and i'm smoking crack? and on another "i'm not really sure..." didnt we get brady clark from colorado in recent years? (edit: yeah, i really wasn't sure. cincy from above. damn. i suck)

metsmarathon Jul 13 2005 05:42 PM

i've given up trying to guess, and have decided to see if i could root out the answers before others actally guessed them. in doing so, i've come to question the answer for Cleveland: [url=http://www.baseball-reference.com/g/gutieri01.shtml]Ricky Gutierrez:[/url] March 29, 2004: Sent to the New York Mets by the Cleveland Indians as part of a conditional deal.

duan wrote: hang on I demand a recount; Jose Bautista was NEVER involved with the mets, what the Pirates did with Huber when they got him is NOTHING to do with us ;) Except you got it backwards. We sent Huber to KC for Bautista, then sent Bautista, Wiggy & Peterson to Pittsburgh for Benson/Keppinger.

For both Milwaukee and Colorado: Mets send Benny Agbayani to the Rox. Mets send Lenny Harris & Glendon Rusch to the Brewers. Rox send Craig House & Russ Gload to the Mets.

I thought we had Colorado already -- Payton and Mark Stoner Corey for John Thomson and Mark "I Suck Not A" Little. Little was then moved to Arizona for Bevis Butthead. What happened to that guy?

seawolf17 Jul 19 2005 08:27 AM

Heh-heh. You said "suck."

Edgy DC Jul 19 2005 08:42 AM

You're missing somebody in that Colorado deal. Think tattoos.

Rob Stratton. Had his family name tattooed down his spine - that had to hurt!

Hints Florida: Think first-at-bat home runs. San Diego: Peeps have gotten pieces of this, but there are a few leftover details that they haven’t been able to wrap up. Texas: The trade involved a solid journeyman fourth outfielder, who only got a partial season with us after being acquired in a high-profile trade. Toronto: The Mets trade for a veteran bat off the bench. Washington/Montreal: Parts of this trade have been suggested, but not the whole enchilada. It’s part of the great Rick Anderson/Ed Hearn trade chain.

Edgy DC Jul 29 2005 11:54 AM

Florida: Think catchers but don't think about Piazza.
