Historical league, but in his rookie season, the Yankees traded Lou Gehrig to the St Louis Browns for Marty McManus. The Browns still sucked anyway, but I wept sweet tears of joy. The Yankees did still win the World Series in 1927 with McManus, and Gehrig won 3 MVPs while playing on a horrible St Louis team. The Browns never had a .500 record from 1923-1939 (Gehrig's career), and had 13 100+ loss seasons, including 6 seasons in a row with a sub-.200 winning percentage.
