Juan Guzman we went out and got in 99 for BJ Ryan and another minor league pitcher....Had a big salary that did an ok job for us that year when traded.....Still didn't get us over the hump though and into the playoffs as we all know what happened..

Yea I give alot of credit to Dave Duncan....He always seems to get a scrap heap of a starter and turn him into something of reliability and greatness....Chris Carpenter was coming off a major surgery and always had shoulder problems.....When the Cardinals picked him up how many years back, anyone could of had him....Took him awhile to get back but when he did, now look at what he does for that team....Kyle Loshe pitches 10 times better then he did when he was with the Reds or even the Twins....Many other pitchers he seems to do this with and it goes on and on.....Dave Duncan and Alber Pujols.....Thats all you have to say
