Yeah because Bourn is such a great leadoff hitter. Top 10 in the NL in strikeouts for a leadoff hitter. Wow. 2nd half average of .220 or there abouts. I'm so happy Bourn isn't coming back.

I'm thrilled to have B.J. Upton. I really think we've yet to see the best of him. He's going to have more lineup protection this season than he's ever had with the Rays.
