Cards tarde Lugo

By: Guido

Julio Lugo was traded today to Baltimore for cash or a player to be named.

This works well for Lugo who will now get an opportunity to play almost everyday. Lugo will be backing up Brian Roberts at second, Cesar Izturis at short and Miguel Tejada at third. The Cardinals will use Felipe Lopez as their infield back-up.

This kills the proposed Cubs/Orioles deal that would have sent Jeff Baker or Mike Fontenot to Baltimore for middle reliever Matt Albers.
