We had Trader Dan's son Jim as the GM of the Mets for two years, too.

At least this is the last year we'll be paying Mo not to play

Roger is probably the best of the last 30 years. But no one, ever, was as good as Koufax from 1962 to 1966. The Dodgers won 3 pennants and two Series in that run, while not scoring a hell of a lot of runs. If today's medical techniques were available to him then, he might have averaged 24-3 and a 1.88 ERA for another 5 or 6 years. Nolan had nights when he got lit up. Koufax was the only guy I ever saw who you thought could throw a no-no any time he took the mound
