That's some sweet free publicity for the Vipers...first Fleury 'signing' with the team and appearing on the front page of the Sun, and now this.
The backstory on this (for those who didn't click on the link) is that Odem couldn't get into the country, so he was pretty much useless to the Vipers, so they traded him to another league for the aforementioned bats.
