[USML Announce] It's Thumbs Down For Daddies

[Brad Jansen]

*ITEM*
*The **Boston Red Sox*<http://espn.go.com/mlb/team/_/name/bos/boston-red-sox>
* thought they had **Jonathan
Papelbon*<http://espn.go.com/mlb/player/_/id/6373/jonathan-papelbon>
*'s replacement in **Andrew
Bailey*<http://espn.go.com/mlb/player/_/id/30096/andrew-bailey>
*, but the closer might not be ready to step in for a while.*

*Red Sox team doctors examined Bailey, and a team source told
ESPNBoston.com's Gordon Edes that he expects the right-hander to have
surgery on the injured thumb of his pitching hand. Bailey will get a second
opinion from Dr. Robert Graham in Cleveland and could undergo a procedure
later Tuesday if the doctor agrees with the diagnosis. It's not clear how
long Bailey would be out if he needs surgery.*
*LOSER*
Hoosier Daddies. Nathan last closer standing on this team that has *BIT THE
HAND OF FATE.*
**
*WINNER*
Berliners. The competition is either too mediocre or too banged up
to contend against this megateam that already has the *Damon IN HAND*.
