Crack open an icy cold Budweiser Cardinals Nation, because Chris Duncan is no longer a member of the St. Louis Cardinals.  The wackiest part is…they actually got a real life baseball player for him.  Not a good one or anything (Julio Lugo), but a living, breathing human.  I would have traded him for a six pack of Pabst Blue Ribbon.

“… he hasn’t scored a hit in nine straight games and is now batting just .227/.329/.358 with five dingers and 32 RBI in 260 at-bats. He has also struck out 67 times this year and brings absolutely nothing to the table defensively.” (RotoWorld)

When asked about the trade, Chris Duncan was quoted as saying, “Fire…BAD!”
