Let the speculation begin.
Tampa Bay Rays CF B.J. Upton was pulled in the eighth inning of tonight's game against the Kansas City Royals. Upton didn't appear to be hurt at the time he was pulled from the game.
To add fuel to the Upton trade speculation, Desmond Jennings was a healthy scratch tonight with Triple-A Durham.
The Rays have let it be known they are willing to listen on Upton, so this may have legs. We will keep you posted if things develop.
