Wow, about that trade…Tough to give up Elston Howard, particularly if recalc is on. He has some tremendous seasons ahead of him, and with development on should have great potential, offense and defense.

That said, I always liked Demeter when he was on the Phillies; although it’s hard to criticize the trade to Detroit that brought Jim Bunning. Bouchée as i recall had some problems with sex offenses that ended his career prematurely. He was a 1B with no real HR power. I hope for the Cubs’ sake that Crandall holds up.
