FROM THE BASEBALL CHRONOLOGY
»November 18, 1974: In a three-way deal, San Diego trades slugger Nate Colbert to Detroit for Ed Brinkman, Bob Strampe and Dick Sharon. Brinkman is then packaged with Danny Breeden and shipped to St. Louis, and the Cards send pitchers Allan Foster, Rich Folkers, and Sonny Siebert to the Pads. None of the new Padres have a prayer, while the ailing Colbert, who set a record in 1972 by driving in 22.75% of his team's runs, will prove that his 1974 average of .207 was no fluke. He and Brinkman will play for three teams in 1975.
