When was Jill Carroll released? I've spent spates being so out of the loop, news-wise, I totally missed it.

Early April.

Okay, I was in the middle of the beginnings of my medical crap, and still on oxycodone, so I don't feel too bad for completely missing this....

lugo got ejected last night. he was playing right field, i think.

I saw. He's *still* two games away from being eligible at OF in my league.

I haven't followed perfectly, but he was in the outfield today, I think. There was an article in the LA Times about how he's mad now, having been traded to the contending job but without a regular job at shortstop where he played everyday and batted .300 in Tampa. We have Rafael Furcal and unloaded the great Cesar Izturis, as you know.

Good luck, my man.
