Wesstburg, to me is the most complete player we have...slightly better than Gunnar...you may not agree

It’s absurd to say that he’s better than Gunnar. But yes he’s very very good.

Without question Westy is the guy you want at bat in a big spot. Gunnar and Adley of course are right there with him, but the dude just has ice in his veins.

Skenes wiggles out of a bases-loaded jam. Near 40P through 2.

Was just going to ask if he got out of it.  Turned it off once he loaded the bases.

Absurd? He doesnt quite have the same power....but he's a bit more clutch and fields his position impeccably...

I think we should bat Westburg in the top 2 spot against left handed pitchers. He might be a good leadoff hitter with Gunnar at #2 vs Lefties. Then we can maximize greater return on Gunnar's power and the other power hitters like Mountcastle and Santander, and we won't always have to count on Adley to DH.

I love Westburg a lot but he is not better than Gunnar.  Gunnar is going to have a statue one day on the monument park.  Westburg will be in the Orioles Hall of Fame......Gunnar is going to be in THEE Hall of Fame.  

But they look great in a line up together that's for sure.

Can you elaborate on what you mean when say “complete” player?
