Are you in need of a Middle Reliever? I need a Left Handed Relieve Pitcher and am willing to give away the one and only 2011 Joquin Benoit to help bolster another teams bullpen.

My Mooglies have 1934 Lloyd Brown, who did a pretty good job for me in Super League I. If that doesn't tickle your fancy, the Rated R Superstars have 2006 Scott Downs or 2001 John Rocker, either of which can be yours in exchange for Benoit.

Benoit for Downs sounds like a deal.

From the Desk of Moose, Ted Sox Executive Director

Julio Franco has taken some time off to be with his family, we ask that the media respect his privacy at this time.

To replace him, we have brought in a scrappy young kid named Eddie Stanky. He is now in charge of field ops for the right side of the defense.

Additionally, Wilie Mays, a great young kid, will be moving up in the campaign to help push our message along.

Onward and forward to a brighter day in the Super League.

I like the idea of the Super Rule 5 Draft but that would also us being able to know who is available and I am not sure if Smasher wants more work. Still if Smasher is up for it.

Also, maybe we could do something with the chaff of feeder teams, like once you line ups are locked in, you can make 3 waiver claims off a feeder team that has been used.

Should the playoff system (eight divisions, no wildcards) be reformed? The best solution would be each league having three divisions with two wildcards.

A. Yes!

There has also been a talk about redistributing players from older teams to younger teams by various means. Would you prefer:

Subject: Thank You

Dear Supporter:

We tried our hardest and we have nothing to be ashamed of. We went in to change the Super League and to a certain extent we did. We challenged the system and showed that a team with no offense could still make a go in the Super League. There will be talk of what went wrong, who is to blame, and what to do now but I say to everyone now: Do not look back in despair, rather look forward at how you can change the Super League.

If you'd like to contribute to the Ted Sox Victory Fund for Super League IX, please email the Ted Sox PAC.

The good news? Bob Walk pitched a 3-hit complete game shutout in his first start. The bad news? He blew up immediately afterwards.


I knew I shouldn't of given Bob Walk explosives.

Well, promote John Smiley to the rotation, bring up Gott to fill in for long relief.

Also, send down Lou Brock and bring up George Hendrick.
