The Zambrano trade was actually Steve Phillips & the end of Steve Phillips.

Minaya's big moves were:

-Signing Martinez and Wagner
-Sanchez for Seo
-Benson for Jorge Julio (who was traded for Duque) and John Maine
-Trades for LoDuca and Delgado
-Trading Xavier Nady for Oliver Perez and Roberto Hernandez (who has a contract for next year)

All of them (with the probable exception of Martinez, which I think was more of a marketing pickup), were pretty good move

-Pick ups of Endy Chavez, Oliver, Bradford and Valentin which were huge
-Picking up Shawn Green's contract
-Signing Julio Franco, which is questionable. . .

I agree with most of the stuff said here otherwise. I dunno about Zito or Willis, though.
