Just reported by rotoworld, J-Up has landed on the DL with an oblique injury: http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playerpages/player_main.aspx?sport=MLB&hl=272113&id=1310

There are a number of things that can come out of this, Ryan Roberts, who has seen time at OF this year can slot into LF moving Parra to RF. However, this would cause the organization to call up Rusty Ryal to play second. Another move could keep Roberts at 2nd and use Romero everyday in LF until Upton is ready to play again, but that would leave the team with only 3 OFs while Upton is out.
