[USML Announce] Beware Mark Kerber!!

[Andrew Klein]

Rich,  

I thought you adjusted the listserv filters so I would not receive any emails including the word "Weiters".  It greatly distresses me when I do!

>> The 26-year-old is considered expendable as the Astros continue their rebuilding efforts. The Yankees need a right-handed hitter who can play first and outfield, which makes them one potential destination leading into the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline.

One great trade after another.  Consider what's he's managed to accomplish:

>> 
>>

>> • Justin Verlander got hit around late in his start Tuesday, pushing his ERA to 3.71. 
>> Some opponents see a major difference in his raw stuff. "Not even close," said one hitter. "He’s trying to trick you now. He didn’t have to do that before." 
>> The White Sox racked up 23 hits -- six of them by Alex Rios. 
>> From ESPN Stats & Information: For the fourth time this season, Verlander allowed five or more earned runs. That is one shy of his total from the previous two seasons combined.

>> Fair warning - he's a sneaky one that Mr. Kerber.  And he clearly knows what he's doing.  Of course, I say that with great admiration.
