Whats the Best Mid-Season MLB Baseball trade?

thatsright

Diamond Member
With about 3 weeks left for Major League teams to make trades, whats your pick of the best Mid season trade? Tell us what you think, the best trade you can remember that happened before the July 31st deadline?

Bonus Points if you can name all the players in each deal, and the year?
 
so far it cant be any better then
David Weathers for Richard Hidalgo
in 58 games for houston he was batting .256 with 4 HRs and 30 RBI's
with 18 games for the Mets he is batting .338 and 8 HRs and 15 RBI's

but a lot has to still be seen
🙂
 
Best trade this year is certainly Hidalgo to the Mets. GO METS! It's allstar weekend and I'm still able to watch baseball.

Damn straight....Last night was one of the best all around played games I have ever seen...Mets had lots of power (4 HR's)...base hits with runners in scoring position (even Traschel)...throwing someone out at home from the outfield...wow what a great game (basically opposite of the Mets I have been watching for the last 2 years)

Hidalgo threw the runner out at home. He's got a cannon as well as power. First place is within our grasp.
 
beltran trade was huge for houston. but they are doing nothing around his stellar performance so far.

if you mean it was so huge for houston that they are considering trading him already
 
well at the time it was big, but who wouldve known they wouldve tanked the way they did. all the more better for the Cubs anyways 🙂
 
According to ESPN Insider these are the people who are being talked about
Millwood to the Cards?
Big Unit to Yanks or Red Sox?
steve Finley?
Rich Aurillia
Larry Walker?
Beltran?
Kris Benson?
 
why would millwood get traded to cards? phills are fighthing for posistion in the east. walker will only go to contender i hear because of no trade clause(sp?). Benson may be the best pitcher thats going to get trade. Unit wants to stay in AZ because hes settled there.

It would be Millwood and 2nd Baseman Placido Polanco to St. Louis for Matt Morris and Steve Kline

these are talks reported by Bucks County Courier Times and then ESPN

Millwood this year (6-5 5.07era)
Morris (9-6 4.33 era)
 
wow that would be an interesting trade. both have been underachieving a bit this year. kline might be the kicker. hes pretty good out of the pen.
