[USML Announce] To Those Seeking Trades with Calamari

[Brad Jansen]

Hey,
  I know damn well there are at least 9 of you who have not made trade
proposals to me in the last few days.  I am not going to any weddings
tomorrow, I am not going anywhere this weekend and I certainly do not
believe in engaging in so-called "due diligence" to consider trade offers,
unless they're from Mark Blocker. Sorry about that.
  Note that none of you should take this message as any concession that I've
given up this year.  I fully expect to trounce the Berliners and anyone else
who dares stray in my path.  Hope springs eternal along the North Branch of
the Chicago River, especially now that Kendry Morales has joined Jim Thome
to form the best one-two punch in the history of the USML.   Winick, you're
in my sights. Duck and run, my man, or you're gonna get hurt.

Brad
