[USML Announce] Rocco on the Rocks

[jhwinick at aol.com]

Brad Lee,

I knew you'd weigh in here to add to my suffering.? Yes, it is a record as far as I know.? And yes it does put me at a disadvantage vis-a-vis the steamroller that is the Riptorns.? But you may want to remember?the immortal words of Leroy Satchell Paige a little later this season when you're feeling just a bit too comfortable:? "Don't look behind you, they might be gaining on you."? That'll be me.?

By the way, a little something for my league mates to consider.? Chris Ray was acquired by the Block's Bombers from Andy Klein just before he broke down.??Rocco Baldelli was acquired by the Berliners just shortly before he broke down.? Another acquisition from the Klein Nine.? Anyone else see a pattern here?? My gut tells me that all the talk about COPS/DUMP is merely the good Professor's attempt to divert attention from his evil ways.? Talk among yourselves.

Jeff Winick?

No, that would be a death rattle, Jeffrey.? So, how much money are you gonna end up spending to keep players?off ?your team? Will this be a new USML record?

Is that a bark or a whimper I hear in the distance....

This?just in:

Rocco Baldelli will be sidelined indefinitely due to metabolic and/or mitochondrial abnormalities that leave him feeling extremely fatigued after even brief workouts.


Baldelli was on the verge of tears several times while discussing the details of what he called a life-threatening condition. "As far as my baseball career I'm not here to stand in front of you telling you I'm retiring,'' Baldelli said. "We're still going pursue any avenue that we can to try to figure out what is going on and have a better understanding of what is going on. But at this time throughout all of the extensive testing that we've done, we don't have a concrete answer." He'll be placed on the disabled list to start the season, and his career seems in jeopardy if Doctors can't diagnose the problem. Mar. 12 - 12:35 pm et

The Berliner management is engaged in high level meetings at this time, but representatives say that?the franchise is expected to have an announcement regarding Mr. Baldelli later this afternoon.

That is all.
