HBT: Upton can block trades to four teams

I didn?t know this, but apparently Justin Upton has a limited no-trade clause. ?And there are four teams on it, reports Ken Rosenthal: the Yankees, the Red Sox, the Cubs and ? the Indians.

That?s interesting.

I get the first three. Big media markets with big, oftentimes hostile media members. But Cleveland? Man, all I can think is that he just doesn?t like Cleveland as a city. Which is sad, because if you watch their tourism videos, the appeal of the place is undeniable.

Oh well. It?s not like the Indians were likely to make a deal for him. As for the other teams, the reason we?ve heard no Upton rumors involving them is likely the no-trade clause in the first place.
