Thanks for the advice, Brad. Much appreciated.
 
However, in the history of touting, crowning favorites/champions WAY ahead
of the ballgame, etc., has anyone received more hype after trading for two
struggling-barely-keeping-their-jobs closers such as EZ Eddie and Dan
Miceli? Proof is in the pudding, unfortunately, and there is a long way to
go. Besides, who knows how much Bartolo is eating while taking his kids to
Disney. Their low-fat menu has not kept with the changing times....

Dear Douglas:
   Need I remind you that it's not good form to send dispatches about
players you traded away, even when they're playing well.  You don't read my
messages touting Keith Foulke's numbers or Scott Podeseknik's stolen bases
or Aaron Boone's batting average, do you?  Please, let Andy handle such
tasks, since he'll have plenty to do as he watches his place in the
standings collapse under the sheer weight of your awesome team.  Thank you. 
Brad L. Jansen,
USML Chairman, Human Rights Subcommittee

Uhhhh, Rick, I know Vlad did okay today but, can we talk about that deal for
a second?

Justin Verlander
<http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/profile?statsId=7590>  came out
throwing 100 mph and higher in the first inning. When he settled down into
the upper 90s, the Mariners didn't have a chance.Verlander pitched seven
strong innings and Craig Monroe
<http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/profile?statsId=6773>  hit a
three-run home run to help the Tigers beat Felix Hernandez
<http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/profile?statsId=7487> and the
slumping Seattle  <http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/clubhouse?team=sea>
Mariners 6-4 on Sunday, completing a three-game series sweep.Verlander (2-2)
allowed only four hits for Detroit, which swept a series in Seattle for the
first time since Aug. 14-16, 2000. Its starting pitchers held the Mariners
to one run and 10 hits in 20 innings in the three games."I'm glad Verlander
is on our team so I don't have to face him," Curtis Granderson
<http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/profile?statsId=7455>  said. "He
looks like he has an edge in this game -- and he's only 20 years old."
