Remember when the majority of the board didn't want to do that, but just a few weeks later, like gambling addicts, most of the board wanted to do just that?

That was Cowser and Ortiz.

There were lots of permutations.  I’m pretty sure I said I’d probably trade Cowser and Westburg if there was no third piece.   Glad we didn’t, though Cease is looking pretty good.

 But he was specifically talking about 2 polls, one of which you did.  It was the same exact question a few weeks apart and that was about Cowser and Ortiz.

I wish we could trade some posters here for cash considerations.

Yes.  Perhaps I lost the context here.

I’m amazed at how often Westburg hits the ball 105 mph and higher. He doesn’t overswing but generates amazing EVs.

Wow. People were going crazy over Luzardo trade proposals in that thread.

The guy who suggested this had some guy named Hilliard penciled in to our roster post trade.

Remember when CWS fans wanted Cowser, Westburg, + for Dylan Cease? Even if Cease is pitching BBs, he ain’t worth what these guys are turning into.

I was always against all the Dylan Cease trade ideas. I was anti-Cease. Still can't understand how that thread got to be hundreds of pages.

Hopefully Westburg is putting a stop to all of the nonsense about being a roaming position player now. 

 

I remember reading that Elias had no interest in including Westburg in a Cease trade.

Imagine in a couple years an infield of Gunnar/Mayo/Westburg/Holliday. It's going to be glorious.

He's got an ERA under 2.  He's a quality starting pitcher that was known to be on the market.

Good to know. I still prefer the guys we've kept though.

The in game power this year, thus far, is so much better than last year.  Of course, that’s not surprising. It’s not like he didn’t show power in the minors.

So?  It explains why folks were talking about it.
