[USML Announce] Red Hots In League Of Their Own

[Blocker, Mark B.]

A memory: last year the Jays were without a real closer, and announced that Jason Frasor would open the year as closer.  Frasor just happened to be on my roster.  Well, after a few saves were mixed with a few bad outings, the Jays decided that wasn't such a good idea to have Frasor close, and started having others close.  He finished the year with four saves.  Maybe things will work out better for young Mr. League, but just a cautionary tale.

Perfect?  Other than in the context of the classic joke, "Why won't he ever have hemoroids?  Because he's a perfect a-hole.", I make no such claim.

By the way, I still think Rich should have kept Zobrist. We can revisit this issue later in the year. Since you won't bet a bug, I'll bet you lunch that Zobrist out-earns League. I'll also put the odds at 1-2 that the issue becomes moot because Rich buys Zobrist in the auction.
