There are some players that teams just seem to hang on to for no good reason, for far too long. Julio Lugo was that guy for the Boston Red Sox.But a day after falling out of first place in the American League East, the team finally got rid of him and added a little depth to their roster. Lugo, who signed a free agent contract worth $36 million for four-years before the 2007 season, was designated for assignment Friday, but is still owed $13 million through next season.
Live and learn.
