Thank God. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/5161326.html Sept. 24, 2007, 8:13PM Astros trade OF Lane to Padres Copyright 2007 Houston Chronicle The Astros have shipped outfielder Jason Lane to San Diego for a player to be named later or cash. The team announced the deal tonight. Lane, once the most-prized prospect in the Astros organization, hit just .178 in 68 games with the team this season. He's a .241 career hitter with 61 home runs in 494 games.
Haha...now him and Morgan can reunite and suck together once again. The Padres must like out burnt out players, Redding, Ensberg and now Lane. Who's next, Ausmus?
I can just see Morgan and Jason running toward each other in the locker room to embrace , and in the background playing : Reunited, and it feels so good Reunited, 'cause we understood There's one perfect fit And, sugar, this one is it We both are so excited 'Cause we're reunited Hey, hey
Cash or a player to be named later. Hmm. OK, player to be named later could be Rickey Henderson, Richard Hidalgo or Jose Lima. As for cash, maybe a couple hundred bucks and a case of Dos Equiss. Naw, player to be named later for sure (Morgan Ensberg?) Ha ha! -CF
3 years ago Curt Schilling, 2 years ago Geoff Blum and Freddy Garcia, last year Preston Wilson, this year Jason Lane and Morgan Ensberg?
