ANALYSIS:? "Now it can be revealed," explained USML analyst Jeffrey Winick.? "Much like Tricky Dick Nixon's papers, Mark Blocker?often refuses to release his trade?notes until years after the season ends.? This year, however, Mark Blocker granted me some limited access to the inner workings of the Bombers' war room.? The strategy, since the rotation draft, was to dangle Clemens to the K-9 for Jhonny Peralta and Covelli Crisp.? Blocker knew along that he could pull off tha blockbuster with the Angries, that Klein would cry several days about it, but come back pleading for Clemens--if he joined the Yankees, rangers or Bosox.? How could Andy not, with a team built around rag arms like Burnett, Bonser and Chen, and non-performers like Craig Hansen and Eric Bedard. ? "Alas, Blocker's strategy went awry...he waited a tick too long, and now all he has is the potential for another $15 in FAAB action.? Nice try, though, and for that I applaud him.? Blocker sometimes pays heed to my advice, although in this instance he dallied to long at the?fair."? _______________________________________________ announce mailing list announce at usml.net: <mailto:announce%40usml.net> http://lists.usml.net/mailman/listinfo/announce: <http://lists.usml.net/mailman/listinfo/announce>
