The only downside to trading Gubicza for Davis was that Gubie actually pitched in two games for the Angels before getting hurt, and now the back of his baseball card (or BB Ref page, if you prefer) is ruined forever.
To Gubie's credit, he parlayed that trade/two games into a lucrative, long-standing partnership with the Angels, which seems only fair, considering how many pictures were taken of him in even that short time in those hideous Anaheim uniforms.
For some reason, the Hal McRae rant didn't link. So if you're reading this via email, either click through to the Substack page after I fix it or I'm going to post it here. Sorry for the inconvenience.
