Re: Short term jerseys
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.

Re: Short term jerseys
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.

Re: Short term jerseys
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"?

Re: Short term jerseys
I think this article sums it all up. According to this author, there is no team worse at trading than the NY Mets. He even provides statistical evidence, and of course references some of the classics...
Nolan Ryan and others for Jim Fregosi...
Amos Otis for Joey Foy...
Jeff Kent and Vizcaino for Baerga...
Singleton, Foli and Jorgansen for Staub.
He goes on to graph the teams from best to worst, and the Mets are so far below the statistical average, they don't even appear on the graph.
