Dumbest Trade of the Year

I know you can't have a good trade every time you do one. But the Cruz for Pratt trade is easily the dumbest trade of the year for the Cubs.

I guess it just proves the point to keep Jim Hendry as far as possible away from the "real" GM's in baseball. The Atlanta organization practically raped us in the Cruz trade.

It's not to hard to ask but could we of atleast gotten a prospect who could find the strikezone? I don't care if his fastball topped out at 68 MPH it would of been better than Andy Pratt by leaps and bounds. Last I heard Pratt was taken off the 40-man roster and is now in Milwaukee.
