THE WEEK IN WRIGLEYVILLE S-22 #7

TRADES

The TACOMA TOYOTAS traded  Damaso Martinez to the SANTA FE BLUES for Apollo West and 900,000.
Santa Fe gets a defensive minor leaguer. Tacoma gets crusty old Apollo West, who was once, one of the most feared closers in Wrigleyville. He will go out a Tacoma, It's only right.
