In 2004, the Warpigs used a reserve pick to take B.J. Upton, and then later used a 12th round pick to select Chase Utley. They were going to be my U2 Double Play Combo for years to come.
Before 2005 started I had traded Utley to the DVs for Dewon Brazelton (I also convinced him to let me throw in a 9th round pick).
Before the 2007 season I threw the disappointing Upton into a deal with the Rhinos. I had to put on the hard sell to get him to let me include Upton in the deal.
[sigh]
Now they're both on the big stage in the 2008 World Series.
That would be the 2008 MLB World Series. They have yet to play in a NASOMA Series. Maybe one of them can this year.
They'll both be in the nasoma series, too.

ReplyDeleteI think you also overlooked the fact that you traded Upton to me, and I traded him back to you before jettisoning him to the Rhinos.
ReplyDeleteCall it the DV touch, kind of like I have with 'my bean'
