A: I just perused my trades and I don't know if I have one. It could be a trade with the Ball Busters (now the Pirates) in season 10 where I gave up Kenny Foster for Willie Tavarez. This year is the proving grounds for Willie. If he bombs again, then I will regret this trade.

Q: What trade have you made that you feel has helped your team the most?
A: The trade I made with Edric back in seaon 5. I traded Dennis Gilbert to them for C Lariel Almanza and 2b Brian Mecir. Mecir has been a main player in my lineup for the last 8 seasons and Almanza really vaulted me to the WS championship in season 6. I really haven't had a catcher like him since.
