Bitterly making a cocktail while listening to drivel is one of my very best skills.

Send down Matt Williams and JD Drew. Call up Michael Young and Taffy Wright. Use Taffy at LF and Reiser at CF for the week. Robinson back to RF.

Whee!

Please DL Hartnett, and deploy a Roseboro/Parrish platoon.

 I wholeheartedly agree with the Super-League Reporters' Association plan to murder a player - may I suggest Johnny Roseboro? The drama writes itself.

 The Bombers have been trying to move Waner/Heilmann for so long, it's a relief that it's over. Now FairGame can shift them!



Sutton into the rotation for Frank Smith. Rest Eddie Collins with Bobby Doerr. Send down Michael Young to make room.

DL Sudden Sam, replace him with Rapid Robert. Collins back in at 2B, and I guess stick Berkman in a platoon with Frank Robinson for the look of the thing.

 The Imperialists select




All-Star phenom Randy Johnson.

The fact that I am considering cashing him in for rookie Bob Friend should be sufficient grounds for a ratings challenge by itself.

The twee naming in the draft sheet has accelerated to the point that I literally do not know who the gently caress is up next.
