The Chinatrust Whales (中信鯨), formerly Koos Group Whales (和信鯨), were a Taiwanese professional baseball team. Founded as an amateur team in 1991, this club became professional and joined the Chinese Professional Baseball League (CPBL) in 1997. It was administered by the Chinatrust Financial Holding Company. The Whales never won a CPBL championship during its existence. On 11 November 2008, it was announced that the team would disband due to financial losses of the Chinatrust group.
