Hats off to Berliners, as well as to the Daddies and Klein 9, for
making the last few weeks more fun and interesting than I think most of
us
thought they'd be.? OK.? Time for bed.? Now where's that darn
Prospect Planning, 2008 Ed. ?

There
is an alternate site for AOL users that has the final stats.? Mark is
right -?Final Standings are Berliners, Hoosiers, Klein Nine,
Republicans,
Bombers.? But it was ridiculously tight for first place.? 93.5 -
93.0.? ?
Rick thought he needed three things to happen to
pull out a last second victory.? Who would believe he'd get them all
and?still wouldn't win!! (GOP passes me in BA, Rick passes Blocker in
BA,
and Rick puts up 5!! stolen bases).??What Rick hadn't accounted for
was Aaron Laffey.? Who's Aaron Laffey, you say.? Mr. Laffey is a 22
year old rookie who, along with the valient Cleveland bullpen,
pitched both
the Cleveland Indians and the Win Ick Ben Ein Berliners to victory.?
The
Indians have been grooming Mr. Laffey for the last few years in the
minor
league system.? The Berliners?picked him up?out of the free
agent?pool at 12:00 noon yesterday.??Just goes to show that its
never over till its over.
My congratuations to Rick on a great
season.? I expect Rick to be a force to be reckoned with next year as
well.? To anyone who has second guessed Rick's decision to hold onto
Curtis Granderson (and I, admittedly was among them), guess again.? 3
stolen bases on the final day of the season were nearly enough to
single
handedly deliver the Damon to Rick.? And rumor has?it that the
offers for Curtis Granderson weren't exactly the sort you simply
can't
refuse.??
And, of course, kudos to Mark Blocker who managed
to again successfully pull off the Drive for Five.? I don't know how
he
does it, but you've got to admit....nobody does it better.
To Mr.
Kerber - let's meet for lunch.? I want that Damon on my mantle asap
since
its definitely going to someone else next year.
Have a great offseason
everyone.? Given the fact that I'm headed into the draft with two
dead
players, I'm already looking to deal.? There's still some interesting
players on the Berliners roster - starting with a pitcher by the name
of
Vasquez.? Any Sox fans out there?
