Now that I see all of those names in one sentence, I am curious why your team is not named The One Year Wonders. But I digress...you know I trust your roto judgment.

Mark:
I don't think you need to remind league members not to pay me any attention.
But I don't know why you insist on remarking about my deep minors guys. I am not peddling them, nor linking my emails to the numerous articles touting the skill sets of Rick Porcello and Ryan Perry. Trust me (and I know you do), a team's serious trade discussions with me will concern the likes of Evan Longoria, Alexei Ramirez, Francisco Liriano, Adam Jones, King Carlos Quentin, et cetera. You may have seen them on the Big Stage, in performances that ran somewhat longer than those of David Price and Matt Wieters.
You don't need to be a Republican to know this: when you bring your guns to town, you better have some bullets.
Brad "Credit Swap" Jansen

This is exactly the sort of comment we should expect from Brad, and to which league members should rightly pay no attention. As pointed out in my prior e-mail, Price has already been "appraised" versus MLB, Big Stage hitters. These two guys are MLB-ready, not some deep minors guy like the ones that brad used every rotation pick to acquire.

Amen to Kerbs' comment. Before anyone makes an offer for one of the Bombers' high-risk, unappraised properties, please be sure you are pre-qualified and can afford them. Do your due diligence, and that does not mean asking Andy Klein to summarize Winick's magazine for you.

Of course, before bidding on the next Jeff Clement/Clay Buchholtz/Brandon Wood/Delmon Young/Sid Finch, one might wish to contemplate the values of the existing ones.

Mark:
Understood. Now please tell the USML exactly what 5x5 categories you seek to improve on the Bombers by trading either or both of Price and Wieters. Thank you.

Brad:
Since we all know that these two excellent players will lose rookie status this year, they will be activated in connection with the trade, so that, there contract will be running. It not like I am attempting to trade one of those deep minors guys that clutter your reserve roster. You can wait until June 1 to peddle them.

Attached is a link to an article in which a group of experts nearly unanimously picks either Matt Wieters or David Price to be rookie of the year. Please begin submitting offers for both of these fine players as soon as possible. Do not waste time!
