從Mlb Fleece Factor來的文章，簡單擷取其中的大綱，未來相信這一系列的文章還會加
進好幾個名字 XD
==============================================================================
August 30, 1990
The Players: Houston's GM Bill Wood(The Fleecer)and Boston's GM Lou Gorman(The
Fleecee).
The Fleece: The Boston Red Sox acquire relief pitcher Larry Andersen from the
Houston Astros for 3rd base prospect Jeff Bagwell.
Larry Andersen: 在紅襪待到該年球季結束，表現十分出色(22IP, 25K, 1.23ERA)。紅襪
拿下美聯東區冠軍，在美聯冠軍戰直落四遭運動家掃地出門。球季結束
後Andersen成為FA，被教士簽走。
Jeff Bagwell: 最有資格獲選為HOF的一壘手之一，生涯15年都效力太空人，隊史全壘打
(449)、打點(1529)以及保送(1401)的保持者。
==============================================================================
December 11, 2000
The Players: Los Angeles' GM Kevin Malone(The Fleecee)and Darren Dreifort and
his agent Scott Boras.
The Fleece: Los Angeles Dodgers sign free agent Darren Dreifort to a five-year,
$55M contract
史上最大的詐欺之一，Scott Boras的最著名的搶劫之一，Dreifort在道奇的五年留下了
9-13, 4.53 ERA, 1.39 WHIP in 86 games, 205.1 IP
2002年、2005年整年報銷，平均一勝代價超過6M！
==============================================================================
December 9, 2000
The Players: Colorado General Manager Dan O'Dowd(the fleecee)and Mike Hampton
and his agent Mark Rodgers(the fleecers).
The Fleece: The Colorado Rockies signed 28 year old pitcher Mike Hampton to
an eight-year, $123.8M contract which, at the time, was the largest
contract in baseball.
Hampton在山上的兩年繳出災難般的21-28, 5.75。喔，O'Dowd在當時表示，比Hampton在
簽約前，生涯在山上平均的6.88ERA要來的低了 lOl。短暫過水馬林魚之後，Hampton隨即
被交易到勇士，2005年投了1/3的球季，接下來兩年成績欄一片空白。
==============================================================================
January 16, 2002
The Players: Rangers owner Tom Hicks and GM Jon Hart(The fleecees), and right
handed pitcher Chan Ho Park and his agent, none other than Captain
Fleece, Scott Boras(the fleecers).
The Fleece: The Texas Rangers signed Park to a 5 year, $65M deal.
Miserable。朴贊浩在阿靈頓只待了三年半，2003年及2004年合計先發23場，三年半下來
的ERA/WHIP分別是5.75/1.59, 7.58/1.99, 5.46/1.44, 5.66/1.68，跟德州
的大小有的比！2005年的夏天靠著將他交易到教士去換來Phil Nevin，才結
束了遊騎兵的惡夢。五年下來，朴贊浩總共贏了33場球，一場接近2M的代價
。
==============================================================================
On July 30, 2004
New York Mets dealt top pitching prospect Scott Kazmir and pitcher Joselo Diaz
to the Tampa Bay Devil Rays for starting pitcher Victor Zambrano and relief
pitcher Bartolome Fortunato.
從2004到2006年，Victor Zambrano只替大都會出賽了39場，10-14, 4.45。Scott Kazmir
，當今最好的年輕投手之一，在找到控球的時候，活生生是台三振機器。大都會前GM Jim
Duquette任內最偉大的交易。
==============================================================================
The Date: August 12, 1987
The Players: Detroit Tigers General Manager Bill Lajoie(the fleecee)and Atlanta
Braves GM Bobby Cox(the fleecer)
The Fleece: To strengthen their pennant chances, the Detroit Tigers acquired
pitcher Doyle Alexander from the Atlanta Braves for right handed
pitching prospect John Smoltz.
Alexander在11場先發當中繳出了9-0, 1.53，幫助老虎拿下分區冠軍，但在美聯冠軍戰被
雙城給灌爆，9局丟了10分，吞下兩敗，目送雙城拿下世界大賽冠軍。再多投了兩年低於
平均的球季後，高掛球鞋。
Smoltz，職業生涯至今都待在勇士，史上唯一200勝、150救援、季後賽勝投王、未來HOF
候選人之一。
==============================================================================
November 3, 1992
Trade: The New York Yankees acquire right fielder Paul O'Neill and minor
leaguer Joe DeBerry from the Cincinnati Reds for LF Roberto Kelly
O'Neill成為洋基球迷的最愛，同時是90年代洋基王朝的靈魂人物，94年美聯打擊王、五
度入選明星賽。
Kelly成為浪跡天涯的工具人，從那年以後單季從未超過409個打數。
==============================================================================
December 10, 1971
Trade: GM of the New York Mets, Bob Scheffing, traded SP Nolan Ryan, P Don Rose
, C Francisco Estrada, and OF Leroy Stanton to the California Angels for
SS Jim Fregosi.
順應不想待在大都會的Ryan，Scheffing將他交易到天使。Fregosi在大都會只待了兩個球
季，146G, 5HR, 43RBI, .233。Ryan，嗯，5714跟7這兩個數字的涵義應該有不少人知道
。附帶一提，7所代表的意義，在大都會史上還沒發生過。
順道附上一張懷舊照片 http://0rz.tw/7e3Hb
==============================================================================
November 14, 2003
The Players: San Francisco GM Brian Sabean(the flecee) & Minnesota Twins GM
Terry Ryan(the fleecer)
The Fleece: Looking to fill a void behind the plate, the San Francisco Giants
send Joe Nathan, Boof Bonser and Francisco Liriano to the Minnesota
Twins for A.J. Pierzynski.
Brian Sabean任內最偉大的交易之一，在現在會有誰把像當年繳出12-4, 2.96ERA的Nathan
給交易出去？AJP只在老人隊打了一年就被釋出，之後成為全民公敵。Nathan成為當今最
好的終結者之一，Bonser是個堪用的投手，Liriano順利復原的話…
==============================================================================
December 21, 1998
The Players: Orioles owner Peter Angelos and GM Frank Wren(The Fleecees), and
slugger Albert Belle and his agent, Arn Tellem(The Fleecers).
The Fleece: Albert Belle signs a 5-year, $65 million deal with the Baltimore
Orioles making him the highest paid player in the league. The
signing comes a few months after Belle opted out of his 5-year,
$55M deal with the White Sox signed in 1996. In that deal, Belle
exercised a clause that allowed him to opt out once he was no
longer among the top 3 highest paid players in the league.
Belle在1999年繳出.297/.400/.541, 37HR, 117RBI，在前一年有著最高payroll的金鶯，
在那一年繼續在美東當老四。2000年繳出.281/.342/.474，出賽141場，金鶯繼續當老四
。之後由於嚴重的髖關節炎，讓Belle連要坐下都不可能，黯然宣布退休，也喪失了挑戰
眾多紀錄的機會。
==============================================================================
December 13th, 1999
馬林魚利用規則五選秀從太空人那選來Johan Santana，當時的太空人GM Gerry Hunsicker
選擇不保護山大王。最後太空人在該年的五號先發分別是Jose Lima(6.65ERA)、Chris
Holt(5.35ERA)、Brian Powell(5.74ERA)、Marc Valdes(5.08ERA)以及Jose Cabrera
(5.92 ERA)…實際上太空人只需要將山大王放進40人名單…
馬林魚當年真正想要的是Jared Camp，GM Dave Dombrowski跟雙城GM Terry Ryan作了協
議，當年規則五選秀第一順位的雙城選走Camp，第二順位的馬林魚則挑選任何一個雙城想
要的球員，之後兩隊互換，馬林魚給了雙城50K，充當雙城從太空人處選走山大王所需支
付的費用，雙城要求馬林魚挑選山大王。
Jared Camp從未在大聯盟投過球，山大王…嗯，地表最好的投手之一，只能說當時太空人
跟馬林魚都賭錯了。
