Mission Statement


AL NIPPER

Sure the Cubs gave up one of the all-time greatest relief pitchers (Lee Smith) to get him, and sure Al only had 2 wins and walked more batters than he struck out in 1988, but there's no getting around the fact that Nipper had a killer mustache. That's just a fact.

Comment: Lee Smith for Al Nipper and Calvin Schiraldi. That has to be one of the worst trades ever. Was Jim Frey taking medication at the time he made that deal?
