I apologize if this is elsewhere... but Wade talks about a deal that would have sent Utley, Madson, and Bourn to Oak for Zito. Damn... He also laments that the fruits of his not making deals did not fall into place until after he left. Felt bad for him for like a second.

There was one deal that probably would have been very, very popular for a very short period of time. I had a conversation with Billy Beane of the Oakland A’s regarding Barry Zito, and if we had acquired Barry Zito at that time at the top of his game it would have been a very popular move. The cost of doing business was Chase Utley, Ryan Madson and Michael Bourn. We said no and the rest is history. The types of decisions we were making at that time, whether it was considering trading Ryan Howard, or keeping that core nucleus of guys, was that there had to be a point where everything fell into place. Fortunately for the ballclub, it fell into place [in 2008]. Unfortunately for me, it fell into place a couple of years after I left.

The Utley and Madson for Zito thing is pretty well known by now. I'd like to know if they were involved in any other trade ideas. Or what he'd like to say about trading Howard for Kip Wells
no offense but you are everything that's wrong with America

I think he said they never came close to trading Howard, didn't specifically mention Kip Wells

I know Murphy was perplexed that Jim Bowden would offer $42 million dollars more to Matt Cain.
