are you sure Julio Franco is 74? i thought he was at least five years older than that

 

[BuckBackHome]

I thought Robbie Alomar retired?

 

[NJ-Buckeye]

kenny lofton is 50?

I did take a couple liberties

 

[exhawg]

Can Giles play right field? If so I'll take him.

 

[LoKyBuckeye]

I'd never take Franco... he hasn't been the same since he was injured in the Civil War.

 

[AKAK]

Can Giles play right field? If so I'll take him.

They've talked to him, I think the contract term will be longer than the tribe wants...

Out of that list... I'd take Tavares, and I'd give Danny Graves a spring Trining invite, see if he's got anything left....
