I suppose that is debatable but yes, Dave Stewart is the answer.  87-90 with the A's.

Traded him (and Arroyo) for:

But I was more thinking about Inciarte and Swanson for Shelby Miller.

That was another bad one.

I was joking about his comments after basically giving away Toussaint for cash.  He made clear that he didn't grasp the excess value that teams got out of a guy's team controllable years.

That was the "He's worth $2M because that's the draft bonus we paid him" comment?  That absolutely enraged me.

Couple of days late but Javy Lopez would have been my guess for HRs.  260.

Cobb

 

Due to some previous work I'm pretty sure about these 5 Cobb, Gehrig, Hornsby, Mize, Crawford.  

I will guess Hornsby for the singles
