Here is a prime example (Bob Watson is another) of what is good about this process. Completely overlooked player who deserves to be remembered. I still remember how ecstatic I was when I heard the Red Sox had reacquired George Scott for Cooper. Of course I was only about 12 at the time, my Father said they were nuts for making the trade. For the next 20+ years all I ever heard from my Father when we talked baseball was this trade never should have happened and me having to eat crow.

Pretty marginal to me, but okay.

You gotta stop thinking. Just have fun. - Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez, in The Sandlot I've been going to games since August 8, 1973....and on August 22, 2004, finally, a foul ball came my way. I had to reach for it, and it deflected off the tip of my right index finger. Shoot, if I was only 4 inches taller! Have you read The Baseball Same Game?
