[USML Announce] Just Trying to Be Helpful

All of this assumes that TB manager Maddon will act rationally and give Wheeler 
a chance....forget it, the guy is totally brain dead.

Let just say that if someone wants Wheeler, he won't be cheap. ;-)

One thing I'd certainly do, if I had more FAAB than Gammons, is bid at
least a buck more than his balance on Wheeler (but not so much that
rostering Wheeler would be impossible for Gammons), and then make him
an offer tomorrow morning if successful.

And one thing I'd strongly consider if I were a contender with more
FAAB than Gammons is to put in a spoiler bid on Wheeler.

As noted, just trying to be helpful.

Gammons could also make a last minute trade with Robbins for Baez and/or
Walker to get the Orioles saves. . .

Tick tock tick tock

Mr. Gammons needs saves, has 40-something of FAAB to spend and can
roster
pretty much that amount.  Dan Wheeler is sitting behind the old and
fragile
Al Reyes in the TB bullpen.  Will Gammons go full budget on Wheeler?  He
almost has to.
