Think you meant swisher made the all star team.

I can totally see why the swisher trade was made... cant begrudge what we gave up to make the trade... why we got rid of him and for that little... god only knows...

But those two trades were not nearly as crushing as...

1) Todd Ritchie trade... holy f'n hell what did he go 1-15 after being billed as the legitimate ACE this team needed.
2) David wells... what a fat piece of absolute crap...
3) Berry/barry hard choice... not due to the players involved.. but the sheer idiocy and clumsiness of not being able to get the right f'n player back in a trade... it showed a certain lvl of sloppiness that can be xcused if caused by a  1st year intern, but inexcusable for the GM of a
MLB franchise. If he were my employee, i'd have fired him for that one.

generally speaking KW has a **** poor record trading away MLB players and getting anything of worth... hes done pretty well in the smaller deals though. Hindsight probably places the rowand trade pretty low as well... really took away from the core of the 05 team.
