[USML Announce] Fwd: rips seek help moving first basemen

[springkerb at aol.com]

First, just to save everyone some time, and potentially some pain, I 
note that both Kotchman and Morales are sitting behind Shea Hillenbrand 
on the Angels' depth chart.  So, if you want to take a swing at a 
couple of young guys who might possibly prove useful if an when they 
play, but who are unlikely to see extensive PT in 2007, go right ahead. 
  As for me, I'll have them on my list of guys to pick up in the reserve 
draft.

On a somewhat related subject, it really is getting to be time to nail 
down the draft date.  The calendar is starting to fill up.  I am open 
3/31, 4/1 or 4/7.  I could also do 4/7 (Easter), but only if we start 
in the afternoon.  I am not open the weekend of 3/24-3/25.  Since the 
most likely weekend, based on previous e-mails, seems to be 3/31-4/1, 
and since that is a spring break week for many schools, it would make 
sense to decide before people start making vacation plans.

  hey, guys! I have a wee logjam at the 1B slot, what with Dan Johnson 
(As' projected starter), Casey Kotchman (Angels' projected 
starter),?Kendry Morales (may take 1B/DH job in ANA) and Jim Thome 
(Rips' projected starter but available for right price).?
 ?
  You know their low?salaries and contract status?(if not, why not? but 
I think it's set forth in Jeff's roto analysis of my likely reserve 
list).? I'll happily bundle 2-3 of 'em for a body, even an untested 
magic bean.
 ?
  I'm bored, but ready to deal!!? Act now or complain later.? Ciao, 
bros!???
