Fess up Brad.  You won't part with him.  I tried to get you to include him in a deal and you wouldn't even begin to entertain the thought.

Dear Jeff:? 
? Thanks for the crime report.?Poor lad probably needed some tough love on father's day.? Maybe a game, er sport of golf would have tamed the beast within.?Anyway, the Riptorns stand behind this man who has a big heart, a boatload of talent and unusually quick fists.? But with this sorry news, 
I am filing away my prospects portfolio until your newsletter/magazine gets published next spring (assuming, of course, you can raise enough funds from your family and your law firm's credit line to get the thing to press).?I don't want to hear anymore about anyone's "prospects" (especially yours, Andy, whoever you think they are) in any further trade proposals.??The only good news is that at least I didn't trade for the guy...

This just in from the DUMP hotline:

One day prior to Tampa Bay announcing the return of Delmon Young from his suspension, they found an able bodied replacement for the suspended list.

As reported inBaseball America: 

More bad news came down in Durham, as the Devil Rays suspended outfielder Elijah Dukes indefinitely and sent him home to Tampa after Dukes got into an altercation with teammate Ryan Knox in front of the elevator at the club's hotel while they were on the road in Charlotte on Saturday night. 

While the organization had little to say publicly about the incident, Dukes said he was told only to leave the team and added that the 6-foot-1, 184-pound Knox started the fight, and he said he would be cleared of any wrongdoing. 

"I don't know what's going on right now," he said. "I haven't heard from anybody."

This is the second time Dukes has been sent home this season, but the first time the Rays have announced a suspension for the 21-year-old outfielder. 

More to follow......
