     This is a trade that is tough to figure out.  These are two former All-Stars, who took a big slide last season.  When I said that the Giants needed another power-hitter behind Barry, this is not what I had in mind.  They should have gone for a guy in his prime.  As for the Angels, they didn't need another infielder in the first place.  Their main weakness is at the Catcher position.  Neither of those two will put up All-Star numbers again, so it was a lousy trade for both teams.
