Joel Guzman

The Dodgers finally did what was written all over the wall. They cut bait on Joel Guzman by sending him to the Devil Rays for free-agent-to-be Julio Lugo.

I like the trade for both teams as the Dodgers had soured on Guzman, and even if they hadn't, they are loaded with propsects at the positions Guzman could man.

The Devil Rays added another talented AAA OF to the attitudinally-maladjusted ones of Delmon Young and Elijah Dukes.

Fortunately, the Devil Rays made some room in the OF at AAA Durham by suspending Elijah Dukes yet again. FWIW, Dukes is the OF I believe could be the most productive rotisserie one amongst the three, but he will seemingly never get a chance.
