Just think what our rotation would look like today if we hadn't traded Haren for Mulder. I didn't like the trade to begin with and hate it even more now.

I was big fan of Mulder and thought the Cards could use a solid lefty at the time.... If I'd have known that he was going to be hurt for his entire STL career.. then yea, I would've hated it...

What if Rick Ankiel didn't forget how to pitch? That guy was unbelievable as a 20 year old rookie in 2000.... Imagine if he would've progressed and developed.... He was a mid-90's lefty with a GREAT breaking ball.
