If anyone else wants to be Commissioner, please let me know or post here by Wednesday the 11th. If anyone does, then we'll have an election and if not we'll have the dreaded Vote of Confidence. Thanks, -Tom

Dues
(Preview)
After thinking about the matter further, I don't see any reason to continue the practice of paying dues. Those of you who have already sent them in, if it's a check I will tear it up and if you sent cash I will mail it back. Thanks, -Tom

Rome trade block
(Preview)
Rome is basically done, barring something crazy (note... 'something crazy' can't actually be ruled out), and is mainly looking to dump a few prospects/potential C auction guys. The following players are available for $5k (if you see something you like, feel free to just post it, first come, first...

BTM trade block

Fontenot is rated as a 2 at ss by SOM World and has a .255/.357/.783 line vs. lefties. He also played 2b and 3b. The team is pretty much set but I'll listen to any offer...

Shiner Shopping
(Preview)
My Surprise post generated so much attention that I might as well do one for Shiner also. Although I'm content with the current roster, feel free to propose further upgrades. I wouldn't mind making room for another big bat. Shiner would also be interested in trading some of their players and prospe...

Surprise Heating up the Stove?
(Preview)
With the two rudderless teams finding leadership at last, this seems like a good time to attempt firing up the Hot Stove again, which has been very cold for the past few weeks. The Zombies did finally make a couple trades, but are still seeking young OF and 3B talent to join their developing core. Sw...

Vance Worley
(Preview)
As I seem to have much more pitching depth than outfield depth I am thinking about moving Worley for a good young outfielder. If you are interested and have something in mind please send me an email. Worley got 21 starts this year with a 3.01 era and is only 24.

Somewhat Less New Owner for QUA

Unfortunately, the last truly new possible owner I was working on decided not to join, so the new owner of QUA is.....me. Hooray? QUA is being renamed the San Jose Wave. Trade offers and inquires are welcome, but hands off Alex Cora! He's the best!!
