While I'll object to the editorializing, the basic premise is undeniably true. I am a fan of the rightful '85 WS Champions.
I've spent the last 4 years or so trying to figure out how STL could pry Greinke away from you guys. When he was a rookie I watched him in a game where he followed up a 96 mph heater with a 59 mph curve. From then I was hooked. I was really hoping we could swap Reyes for him back when he was really having a rough go of it, I'd have throwin in Chris Duncan for good measure. After the '06 season when Duncan had 25(ish) HRs after a callup and Reyes owned Detroit in the WS, the iron seemed hot.
Instead our brain trust ruined young Anthony and shipped him off to CLE for a reliever we promptly left exposed in the Rule 5 draft. Duncan is now injured and doesn't have a place to play. Not good times.
Y'all have a keeper.
