you know your team made a good trade when...
...later that year you read this about the guy you traded: "Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Ugueth Urbina has been arrested in Venezuela on charges that he and a group of friends attacked employees at his ranch with machetes and tried to set fire to them, police said on Tuesday." He attacked them with MACHETES and tried to SET THEM ON FIRE. I don't even know how that would happen. Did he threaten them with the machetes and chase them around with a torch? Did he just light the machetes on fire and throw those at them? Maybe this was all just a big misunderstanding of Uggie taking up flaming sword juggling. I'm just waiting to hear that Kyle Farnsworth is a cannibal or something. GEEZ, and everyone seems to think that T.O. saying mean things about Donovan McNabb is bad. Either way, kudos to the Dave Dombrowski and the rest of the Detroit Tigers management for having the foresight to trade a guy that would later try to set other guys on fire. I don't think that Jim Leyland would be able to hold the team together next year if Uggie were to set Fernando Rodney and his goofy facial hair ablaze while he was getting loose in the bullpen.
