Upton Ripple Effect

Depending on any news that happens on this topic in my opinion, I have created a blog post topic called "Upton ripple effect". In baseball, after a big free agent signing, teams start to realize what they need. After Upton's signing, many things will occur that depended on his decision of team. Questions that I will try and answer include:

Did the Nats think they had a legimate shot at acquiring Upton?

What happens to Michael Bourn now? Philly anyone?

Who are the Phillies going to pursue for centerfield? They had their shot.

How will Josh Hamilton fare from his decision?
