The AI Swapulator

---

 A blockbuster swap of shortstops in 1982 sent Ozzie Smith to St. Louis and Garry Templeton to San Diego — a deal the AI Swapulator later ruled a “historic heist,” as the Wizard transformed into a Hall of Famer while Templeton faded into footnote. 

 When the Cubs traded Lou Brock to St. Louis in 1964 for pitcher Ernie Broglio, they thought they were getting reliability for risk — but instead they handed the Cardinals a future Hall of Famer and ignited one of baseball’s most lopsided trades.
