Elijah Dukes was traded to the Washington Nationals yesterday. The troubled outfielder joins another troubled outfielder recently traded to the Nats, Lastings Milledge. Am I the only one who sees a potential for trouble here?

In today's paper, Newsday catches up with aspiring rap mogul L Millz a.k.a. DA Edge a.k.a. Lastings Milledge, who angered his Met bosses last month with the release of a profanity-laden rap song.

Yikes. That was a horribly played game by both sides.
Dan McCutchen pitched OK again–6 innings, 3 runs, and was very good after AGonz hit a 2-run shot in the first. He trailed 3-2 upon departure, though, thanks to the Pirates (namely Lastings Milledge) leaving a ton of men on...

In this morning’s column, Thomas Boswell had this to say about Milledge:
For example, the Nats are tired of Lastings Milledge, their 24-year-old center fielder, acting like a 10-year veteran who has earned a central position in their locker room when, in fact, he has accomplished...

(by Jeff Bergin) I like this trade today. I liked it two days ago, yesterday, and I will probably like it tomorrow. I do not get scared because of the prospect that one day Lastings Milledge will hit .300 with 30 HR and 30 SB's--frankly, I dont care what he can produce any longer...
