THE WEEK IN WRIGLEYVILLE SEASON 24 #5

TRADES

The ARIZONA COBRAS traded Mule Crawford and 1,000,000 to the RICHMOND REVOLUTIONARIES for Bob English and Dustan Hansen
It looks like the "Sinking Ship Sale" has taken a turn. Swish has decided to tow the ship out to the reef and scuttle it. He is in a full re-build mode and will be looking for prospects. Mule was brought in in the off-season from the Black Bears to round out the rotation. Now he will try and help Richmond make the playoffs. Swish recieved 2 prospects ,English will hit well and has speed to go with the power. Hansen will make a good set-up/closer if he stays healthy.   

The HELENA BARKING MOONBATS traded Jack Shave and 1,000,000 to the SCOTTSDALE SCHIZOIDS for Odalis Colome and Hector Gonzales
Sordie sent me a offer I could not refuse.I had  Louie Yoon playing RF and he has been good. But he's young and I don't want to overplay him(Stamina of 69). Shave allows me to bring him along slowly and he is a up-grade defensivly. It cost me a couple pitchers that were stashed in AAA for emergency. I realize I have just few seasons before Mark is through with his re-build. I'm in a win now mode!!  


M L INJURIES

Russ Porter
Russ "Trans" Porter is still Transitioning to the Majors after last seasons call-up. Just a little back pain for this future CF GG. I would like to Transfer him to my team. ;)


Jeremy George
Doesn't Jeremy "Bye" George realize the Bruins are trying to win. He is gonna miss 2 weeks with a strained hammy. I say old chap, bye, bye to George at the end of the year. Cheerio! Hip Hip!


Bob Neugebauer
Oh, what can you say about Bob "Nuegie" Neugebauer landing on the DL ....again. The stiff oblique will keep him out for 3 weeks. Now he can't perform his Nuegie Boogie routine at the redtail games.


Jeffrey Moreno
Jeffrey "The Giraffe" Moreno is not a tall man but he loves shopping at Toys for Us. He will have plenty of time to play with his toys now. His stiff groin will sideline him for 2 weeks. Play on Jeffrey, Play on.


Louis White
Dodger needs to hide the hookers from Louis 'Eggshell" White. He is becoming a DL darling with his penchant for injuries. Ever since that Juarez prostitute tore his groin in S-21. Well the docs couldn't put him back together right. 


Carlos Bolivar
Carlos "Soup" Bolivar is gonna be on the DL for 2 months even though he'll be ready in one. He tore the miniscus in his knee. Ralph stares down at his empty soup bowl and says. "Please sir, I want some more" (Oliver Twist-Charles Dickens)



Wade Harris
Wade "A Minute" Harris will miss 2 weeks with a cramp. Wait a minute??? you mean this nancy has a cramp and can't play?? Wuss!!
