[USML Announce] Brats, We Have A Problem

[JOHN FRUIT]

"Their closer is Jose Veras".  Brad, may I kindly remind you the Brats also have closers Jim '40+saves' Johnson and Glen Perkins, so once I have a 40 game lead in saves, please all takers offer me a live body at SP or OF.  I might also suggest that Miggy is a better candidate for anchoring my CI. As for Dominguez and Wallace, can't argue they are both flyers on a pretty bad team-  but at low salaries hold plenty of option value.I wish I had: sold my prime end-of the-table spot to Brad for $25I regret: stocking my roster with 6 closers or closers-in waiting and neglecting SP and OF.Steals: not so sure about Veras as of yet-  he stunk as a Brewer.  I'd make better argument for Craig Gentry at $1-  don't pencil in Leonys Martin quite yet for Texas' CF spot. Scott Diamond at $1, Jemile Weeks at $1 and the aformentoned Dominguez at $5 all honorable mention.Finally, I concur with Doug....don't go counting your chickens before they're hatched-  the Brats are in it to win it.

If the numbers of Astros players on an active roster correlates to a team's fortunes, the Brats indeed may have a difficult time defending their Damon. Their CI is anchored by Dominguez and Wallace and their closer is Veras. Not good. Not good at all.

Rips have two, Altuve and JD Martinez, the latter of whom should be replaced by Aaron Hicks in good time, so that's not too bad, I hope.
Winick's picktoclick Hoosier Daddies have just one, Justin Maxwell, he of the .220 career BA, with an even worse Fernando Martinez waiting in the weeds. That does not bode well.

MRH, the preordained champs, have zero, as do the Berliners. So maybe Berliners do have a shot....
