If we wanted to trade Ludwick, I'm betting we could have sent him to any number of teams for a far better SP in the offseason.

And Darryl Jones probably would've had the Indians eating his salary still.
Ya think the Phillies might have had a use for a RH bat that plays a great RF after they let Werth walk in the offseason?
Nah.
Find me a single team in baseball that couldn't use a righthanded power hitter (probably the most difficult offensive presence in baseball right now) that plays excellent defense and is a proven hitter w/ RISP.
But I'm sure the best we could do was Jake MFing Westbrook.
This deal just blows my ****ing mind.
