[USML Announce] Searching For Gems in Berliners' Rockpile of a Roster

[springkerb at aol.com]

So, I checked the standings as Jeffrey suggests, and I see that about half the league is within ten points of him.

However, in all fairness, it's entirely possible that one or more of the guys you identified will eventually not suck.

Sir Jeffrey:
   Nice peacock strut. 
   For those owners who are short on the time it will take them to identify the "best stuff" on your team to acquire via a lop-sided dump deal, I have assembled the info for them:
     Eric Hosmer: .177 BA in 158 AB; heading to minors
     Austin Jackson: Up to 29 Ks as regresses to old ways, DL-bound, may never be SB threat again
      Ivan Nova: 5.69 ERA/1.65 WHIP
      Matt Moore: stats too terrifying to post; brutal tour through baseball's toughest division reminds us he's no Dylan Bundy
       Grant Balfour: "future closer," blah blah blah 
 
If anyone has questions or requires additional information, please feel free to email me.

Another player traded to me by Brad Lee that bites the dust.  Rest assured it's all part of the evil genius's grand plan.  But look a little closer Mr. Jansen.  The Berliners roster was built to deal with contingencies such as this.  Mr. Getz will be replaced and the Berliners will be fielding a full offensive squad come Sunday.  No middle infielders needed.  And that light hitting third baseman from Boston - he hit a home run tonight in his first game back.  Check the standings oh ye bearer of doom.

But the Berliners are prepared to put this nonsense to rest and lock down the Damon.  To all of you who have some interest in building up your teams for next year, you know where to find me.  First one in line gets the best stuff.

That is all.

ITEM

NEW YORK -- Needing pitching depth, the Royals called up left-hander Will Smith from Triple-A Omaha on Tuesday. At the same time, they placed second baseman Chris Getz on the 15-day disabled list with a left ribcage contusion, an injury he aggravated during Monday night's 6-0 victory over the Yankees. The move gives the Royals a 13-man pitching staff.
LOSER
Berliners. Return of lighthitting Youkilis to threadbare offense of little moment with speedster Getz on DL with no reserve MI on call as this team is DOWN FOR THE COUNT.
WINNER
Bombers. Plenty of time to convince Berliners to take a try on Sogard as Bombers HAVE BERLINERS' NUMBER.
