[USML Announce] It's Thumbs Down For Daddies

[Doug Shabelman]

Right, just like the relativity associated with Mike Trout and "top prospect, 2012."

Ohhh, let the barbs start to fly!

"Strong" is a relative term, especially when used in the same sentence as "closer" and "Capps" and "Melancon."

Well, that's three strong closers on my ballclub now, maybe someone with a surplus of outfielders wants to give me a call.....operators ARE standing by, so let me know.

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.
