Lugo is at it again

Ever wondered what happened to Julio Lugo when he left the Cardinals?

Tony LaRussa, the infamous manager of the Cardinals took a call one day that would change his life. The trade for Julio Lugo was giving him migranes. This guy proved once and for all that Theo Epstein was a complete idiot...not that he would ever say it.
"Ya."
"Baltimore Orioles."
"What?"
A pause. Tony thought about it. Somehow he felt flowers rise from the ground and the air...yes the air felt fresh and sweet.
"Lugo...ya...ah...he's great!"
"What...that guy eats s--t for breakfast."
Tony practically threw a hand grenade at Chris Carpenter, a pitcher for the team.
"What...no we were talking about the food around here...bad...really bad."
A pause. Perhaps Tony could save the call.
"Oh ya, I would...stake my reputation on...Lugo. Ya, he's great."
Tony suddenly felt nausea flow over his brain.
"No, he's great. I mean the team is of course really sad to see him go but.."
A pause. Cheering rang in the background.
"No, no, it was just we learned of...ah...undiscovered papers of Thomas Jefferson...everyone here is a big history fan...and all."
A pause.
"Ya, you will...LOVE him. Ya, I'm just so...sad to see him go but...please...don't let my feelings get in the way. This is baseball."
A pause. The cheering stopped. The entire team was huddled around Tony.
"OK, OK...ya...I'll let management know. Lugo will be so sad to leave."
The phone hung up. Tony hugged the players.
"Gentlemen, we have rid ourselves of Lugo."
Julio walked in. The uniform was on fire. He waved it around trying to stop the fire.
"LUGO!!!!" shouted Tony.
"Man guys, portable stoves and open containers of gasoline sure don't mix. "
Tony let the pencil he had in his hand fall gently on the carpet.
"Lugo...is the clubhouse on fire?"
"Don't worry boss, I'll save my uniform but I tell ya, I ain't going in there to get the oxygen tank out. It's too dangerous."
Smoke and fire filled the clubhouse.
"EACH MAN FOR HIMSELF!"
