    Short term jerseys

    Here's a fun one - let's see some pics of items that will probably never be seen on the market due to their rarity. Here's a couple of my picks..

    Piazza played 5 games with the Fish.



    Ryan Langerhans only had 2 games to get this uni broken in!

    Re: Short term jerseys

    Here's one from my collection... a 1982 baby blue Texas Rangers Ron Darling jersey... Made for Ronnie for the start of his rookie season in the lone star state... but he was traded to the Mets before he was able to throw his first pitch as a Ranger.

    Not sure if it qualifies, so I'll provide an alternate...

    1987 Mets road John Candelaria jersey. The "Candy Man" pitched a grand total of 6.1 innings on the road for the Mets in Sept. 1987 (2 games).

    Here's Ed Hearn's game issued 1987 Road jersey which he never got to use because he was traded in March 87 for David Cone to the Royals.

    This is Ed Hearn's jersey from 1985. Ed did not make the team in 1985 but he may have been called up later in year but never played.

    That Dave Cone for Ed Hearn trade is the worst trade in the history of baseball. Ed Hearn was a completely worthless backup catcher with bad knees who barely saw the field of play after the trade (no offense if you collect him), and Cone went on to win Cy Young's win 20 games, etc... I'm still extremely bitter about that as a Royals fan.

    No offense taken. It was a shoulder injury which did Ed's career in not bad knees though. I agree it was probably the worst trades in Royals history. However would it make you feel better if i mention "Ryan for Fregosi"?

    Well, if you're a Mets fan, there's plenty more from where that came from...

    Most recently... Scott Kazmir for Victor Zambrano

    In 1992 Mets traded David Cone for Jeff Kent a future HOFer and then in 1996 sent Kent to the Indians for an aging Carlos Barega
    and Alvaro Espinoza!
