Elijah Dukes Coming To My Backyard: He’ll be a National, It Looks Like…
by

According to the Nationals Journal on WashingtonPost.com: “Dave Sheinin just confirmed what I’ve been trying to for the last couple hours – that troubled Tampa Bay outfielder Elijah Dukes has been dealt to the Washington Nationals.
We do not yet know who was dealt in return.
More in a minute.”
Oh yea. I’ll give Jim Bowden credit, he’s got balls.
The natives in Washington D.C. will not be happy. Perhaps a change in scenery will be good for the young guy, and perhaps he can turn his life around — he does have the talent, and I guess it supersedes anything else in life.
This is a high-reward/low-risk move unless he gets in trouble with the law again.
