The 3 Expos coming to STL in the trade had all played for new Cardinals MGR Vern Rapp in Denver during the 1976 season...But, only Scott ended up having time in the big leagues with the Cardinals. Scanlon spent the first month at AAA with the New Orleans Pelicans batting .363 with 6 HR in 91 AB before he was traded to San Diego with John D'Acquisto for reliever Butch Metzger. He played in 47 games for the 1977 Padres batting .190 with 1 HR in 79 AB.
