While finishing off the bon bons, I noticed that my overpaid editor engaged in a little wishful thinking and attributed the most valuable of the prospects residing on a reserve roster to himself rather than yours truly (see #'s 3, 4, 9 and 14). #1 does indeed belong to Brad Lee, but his contract is running and he'll likely be well into year three before he throws his first major league pitch.<br>

Sent: Sun, Jul 8, 2012 5:22 pm<br>Subject: [USML Announce] The Winick Report: Future Now For Redoubtable Riptorns<br><br><br>Hello, everyone. I'm dictating this email from my luxury box at the Futures Game, so this won't be too long because I don't want to miss the dessert cart. Look, although I've given up doing a deal with the Red Hots, I certainly haven't given up following the up and coming stars of tomorrow.<br>
<br>And when it comes to a constellation of talent, I have found the God particle in the Riptorns' reserve roster. I share with you Baseball America's updated fab fifty list and highlight in RED the many young, incredibly talented players on the Rips' squad. Enjoy the breathtaking possibilities of this Riptorns team and wait---where's my bon bon??!!<br>
