Re: Bruce for Upton?

No way, no how. Thiis roster only has two lefty bats as it is and sux against RH pitching. They need to add another bat as good as Bruce's or better to what they have. If you dealt Bruce for Upton, you'd just need to turn around and acquire another Jay Bruce. Very bad idea.

Because, when this thread was started Bruce and Upton were top prospects.
