[USML Announce] MLB Amateur Draft - The Price Is Right

[Andy Klein]

How about if I just tape a big Brandon Wood poster to my bedroom wall ... ??

PS to Brad:  With Gordon rolling and Abreu heating up, I think you should reverse course and play for this year.  You've done it before!!

"I can only play by the rules that you and Brad permit." 

Well, I'm glad to hear that we now have that settled. 

Brad Lee, would you please send Andy the special rule book that we have prepared for him?  Its the one that starts with "Rule No. 1:  No team managed by or affiliated with Andy Klein may ever trade prospects for a "real, honest to goodness" player (using the Klein/Blocker definition of "real, honest to goodness") since such a transaction does not involve any degree of skill whatsoever and would be unfair to those teams who can't distinguish between a real prospect and a Craig Hansen or a Dernard Span."

Jeff- 
  
I can only play by the rules that you and Brad permit.  I would, of course, be honored to have both of you co-sponsor the renewal of my failed proposal during the offseason!

  Tomorrow the Tampa Bay Devil Rays will make Vandy pitcher David Price the #1 overall pick in the amateur draft.  Look him up; he is going to be a great major league pitcher. 
  
  However, the new look Bombers are playing for now, so tomorrow I will entertain trade offers for Mr. Price.  My intention is to hold a one-day auction, and to have a deal for Mr. Price hot wax sealed by the end of the day. If you want to make an offer, call or e-mail me.  But I want to have a deal done before I get on the train home tomorrow night at 5:30. 
  
  All offers welcome ....but do not delay !

P.S.  Offers on my other keepers are welcome as well. 

Guess PT/KR is figuring out that this whole dumping thing isn't as easy as it looks. 
  
But my real question is this.  Less than 3 months ago, Andy "Josh Fields" Klein (or is that Andy "Ryan Sweeney" Klein) tried to ban any transactions involving minor leaguers and was ably assisted in his efforts by Mark "David Price" Blocker.  Is this an abject lesson in humility (in which case both will be congratulated for seeing the light and will be offered complimentary and immediate DUMP membership) or rather one of the most egregious examples of hypocrisy in the history of the USML? 
  
Inquiring minds want to know. 
  
That is all.
