At the time of the trade for Cowgill i didn't really get it, we had a ton of outfielders already with shuck, bourjos, trout, hamilton, trumbo. But i guess Dipoto knew what he was doing as it didn't seem to cost much at all. Kyle Johnson who we gave up has been a bust and is only 4 years younger. But as good as Cowgill has been he's still only got a .700 ops so the people who want him to start over Hamilton full time are a bit out there.
