Title: Congrat's BJ Upton Post by: Sunstroke on October 02, 2009, 10:13:22 pm Centerfielder of the Tampa Bay Rays becomes the first player in franchise history to hit for the cycle tonight against the Yankees. Game is still in the 7th, so he can still add on, but 4 for 4 so far, single, double, triple, dinger... I once wrote an ode to BJ and Justin Upton's mom titled "Mrs Upton's 5-Tool Womb"...I may need to dig that one up. Congrat's to BJ though...well done!

I sure wouldn't mind having an Upton in Cubbie blue... :D(Not a chance in hell) Title: Re: Congrat's BJ Upton Post by: Tenshot13 on October 03, 2009, 11:15:35 am That puts a good spin on an otherwise disappointing season. Congrats to B.J.!

Title: Re: Congrat's BJ Upton Post by: Tenshot13 on October 04, 2009, 03:30:21 pm Congrats on BJ for underachieving for the 2nd consecutive season. I'd say. If the Rays keep him around for another season and not trade him like I'm hearing, let's see how he does with a full season of being healthy. Title: Re: Congrat's BJ Upton Post by: EDGECRUSHER on October 04, 2009, 05:30:47 pm When does he become a free agent? He has played 5 seasons, but only 3 full ones. It'd be interesting to see how much service time he accrued as to me he seems like the type of guy who goes nuts in his walk year and then just coasts after he gets his big contract.

This good game aside for BJ, his season was a wash and pretty terrible overall. His stock is pretty low right now.
