I've toyed around with making a trade tree on the Braves/Indians swap of Kenny Lofton for Justice and Marquis Grissom that eventually leads to Clase. Biggest hurdle is finding footage or even pictures for all the more minor players from the late 90s, but I may do it eventually.
I just read that the compensation pick awarded to the yankees for Cleveland signing Swisher was used to draft Aaron Judge. Who just knocked us out of the playoffs 🙂🔫
A question can we get a video on the 2009 Javier Vasquez trade? I'm only asking because for one it was made around the same time as this trade plus it's just another reason to make fun of the White Sox for trading their Ace
Will have to look into this one more, but seems like there might be enough there for a video. Some pretty good names get involved - Kevin Youkilis for the Sox and Dan Uggla for the Braves.
And I want to see I don't know who won this trade I mean Swisher was only on the White Sox for about a year before they trade them to the Yankees And to top it all off Neither team really never really went anywhere after this
