Needing help for their stretch run in 1990, the Red Sox traded Jeff Bagwell (then the MVP of the AA league in which he played that season) to the Phillies on Aug. 31 for RP Larry Andersen.
Andersen pitched in 15 games for the Sox that year, went 0-0 with 1 save, and left for San Diego in the offseason. He retired after 4 more years (the last two of which were back in Philly) where he is now a broadcaster.
ESPN ranked it #2 of the top ten worst deadline deals in MLB history.

As a Red Sox fan you get used to bad trades and bad deals.. *sigh*
