Guest JoesBros Posted November 29, 2007 Report Posted November 29, 2007 1971 - Astros deal infielders Joe Morgan and Denis Menke, outfielders Cesar Geronimo and Ed Armbrister, and pitcher Jack Billingham to Cincinnati for infielders Lee May, Tommy Helms and Jimmy Stewart in what would be the defining moment of Spec Richardson's tenure as General Manager. Morgan, Geronimo and Billingham would play major roles in two Worlds Championships. May and Helms have productive but not spectacular runs in Houston while Stewart, a utilityman, would bat .207 over two seasons. www.astrosdaily.com
Ruckdad Posted November 30, 2007 Report Posted November 30, 2007 Arguably the worst trade in franchise history, with the Finley Caminiti for Derek Bell trade mixed in.
