[USML Announce] Grading The In-Season Dump Deals

There are no such creatures. And you may not have noticed, but young Mr.
Gose has begun to establish himself as a perennial All-Star. The others are
close behind, with the exception of Bogaaerts, who is still in the
pipeline. And by the way: no talking during class.
