I know this happens a lot and it does create a good discussion from time to time, but one trade that I wish John Schurholtz would not have made was the 2003/2004 trade with the St. Louis Cardinals that brought over JD Drew. I know he was huge for us during that season and was pivotal to our winning the division since Chipper missed so much time. But one thing that has hurt us in the long run is the fact we gave up Adam Wainwright. He has been very good since joining the rotation and so far this year is 3-1 with a 2.80 ERA. He has gone 7+ each time out and arguably one of the best young pitchers in the NL. I think between him and Jair the Braves would have a good 1-2 punch to go along with Hudson and Glavine. I know just a pipe dream though. But boy what could have been.
Anyway enough of my ramble, what do you guys think?
