[USML Announce] roster updates

Tue Mar 19 13:47:22 EDT 2024

   Anything in the lepidoptera order are the most attractive, though your
coleoptera offer more bang for the buck protein-wise.  But when it comes to
defining what a “handful” of saves is, as one our ex-Presidents said, it
depends on what your definition of is is.  Or in this case, handful.  Are
we talking a handful  based on another of our ex-Presidents’ tiny hands?  (
one or two saves).  Or are we talking Zach Edey hands?  (double digit
saves).  Whatever the case, I’m still infuriated that no one from Adolpho
Sanchez’s camp bothered to notify the H.D. organization that he had signed
with the Reds…..
