Sunday is June 13.

June 13, 1984 is when Cubs and Indians made the 7-player trade that brought Rick Sutcliffe to the Cubs and helped make that Cubs team a dynamite club.

Cubs, of course, gave up Joe Carter—-who even then was obviously a stud.

As it happens, I saw Sutcliffe pitch in Baltimore while still with Cleveland in May....and he was awful...and stayed awful for another month until he got to the Cubs and was great from day one.

Anyway, a big anniversary Sunday if you loved the 1984 Cubs.
