Wow. Somehow I missed this back in September. My former MVP outfielder, Justin Upton, suffered a career-ending labrum injury at the end of the season. He was a 7-time All-Star and helped my A's win the World Series. He finishes his career just 6 homeruns shy of 300, and 81 hits shy of 2,000. Looks like I dodged a bullet by voiding the last year of his contract and going after Bryce Harper in free agency, especially considering Mike Trout just signed an extension to stay in Los Angeles. That would've left a huge hole in my lineup and outfield had I stuck with Upton. Sad to see him go out like that.
