I think the other players in the Unit deal were Carlos Guillen (who's had a nice career) and John Halama (who's stuck around, too, as a swing man)

I brought it up not to revisit the Unit deal, I'd still have made that trade too, but to give kudos to our scouts. It is very hard to win one big league game, much less 100. Most big league pitchers don't even hit 50.

Yeah.  Roy O & Timmuh combine for only 105.  :-)
