Lugo Cut By Sox -- Could Use Cram Session

The Boston Red Sox cut ties with popular utility player Julio Lugo today, ending what had been a largely disappointing tenure with the ballplayer. Lugo, who was actually designated for assignment and can play multiple positions in the infield, was given the designation to make room for the return of both Mike Lowell, the team's starting third baseman, and Clay Buchholz, who are both being brought back on board. Buchholz himself is expected to be sent back to Triple-A when shortstop Jed Lowrie is brought back tomorrow. Lugo's designation basically gives the team ten days to trade or release the player, meaning Lugo will not be returning to the Yankee-hating Boston team. Should the Red Sox cut Lugo outright, we'd be glad to offer him our Cram Session, which could save him $20 on his move and make the news a little easier to digest. If he's traded, we'd still encourage Lugo to look at our Cram Session and see if he'd be interested in saving the cash. Because even though he'd still be raking in the big bucks, we figure he'd still like to save the money in case things don't work out with his new team.
