No surprise here, but B.J. Upton will be added to the 15-Day DL along with Jason Isringhausen, Chad Bradford and Fernando Perez. Perez and Bradford could be moved to the 60-Day DL later if an addition 40-man roster spot is needed. The DL stints will be retroactive to March 27th. We've discussed the signficance of that date before. Upton will be eligible to return on April 11th with all eyes set on the April 13th home opener as his return. In the meantime, Upton is expected to stick around in Port Charlotte and work with the Class-A Stone Crabs.
