[USML Announce] You Traded Lugo For What??

[jhwinick at aol.com]

Thats "sabermetrician", Brad Lee.  And "makeup" is always part of the evaluation of a prospect (as well as prima donnas like JD Drew). And I'm not talking about what you put on your face for special occasions.

This just in: 
? 
Angry words were heard through the door of the Riptorn?clubhouse when?team President Conor Jansen got word of the latest?transaction?of his general manager, Brad Lee. 
? 
"Do you read nothing?? Haven't you seen what Jeff Winick had to say about Upton?? Just when I was?starting to feel better about?your decision making, based in large part on your?ability to pawn this guy off on someone else, you turn around and reacquire him." 
? 
Conor could then be heard picking up the newest edition of the Sporting News and whacking Brad Lee on the head with it.? "It's not like Winick is alone in calling out BJ Upton as a bum,"?said Conor.? "Listen to what the Sporting News had to say: 
? 
The Devil Rays have been willing to talk about trading top hitting prospects OF Delmon Young and IF BJ Upton all winter, but the player teams are more wary of might surprise you.? It's not Young, who was suspended for 50 games last summer after throwing his bat at an umpire in a Class AAA game.? Rather, its Upton, who was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2002 draft but is a shaky fielder and has struggled to find a position.? A rival scout says he soured on Upton when he refused to pick up?baseballs at the end of a batting practice at Class AAA Durham last year and brushed off a Bulls coach in the process.? "There are serious questions about that kid," the scout says.? "I just don't know how much he wants to play."" 
? 
"Great job, Dad."?Conor was heard?muttering as he left the room. 
? 
That is all.
