Sweet songs from The Spile
Welcome back to another incarnation of old timey baseball! For newcomers to these here parts, a quick introduction... the owner of the Waffletown Syrups has a strong affinity for the old days of the game, so with that in mind he has directed his General Manager to obtain old timey players in the mold of Fatty Briody, Ice Box Chamberlain, and Toad Ramsey.
With only a week to acquire the desired 26 players and get them ready for their inaugural season, the Waffletown GM knows he can't be picky and will snatch up the best (i.e. - cheapest) deals he can get and worry about improvements down the road (as long as he doesn't get fired). After the first day of wheeling and deeling, Waffletown has obtained 14 players: -Burgess Whitehead (60) - 1936 -Larry Kopf (54) - 1919 -Dick Hoblitzell (64) - 1915 -Lee Tannehill (48) - 1909 -Ethan Allen (69) - 1934 -Bill Sherdel (65) - 1928 -Pat Duncan (66) - 1922 -Eddie Moore (66) - 1925 -Heinie Meine (65) - 1931 -Art Nehf (57) - 1922 -Del Bissonette (82) - 1928 -Clyde King (43) - 1947 -Hank Severeid (67) - 1923 -George Caster (62) - 1944 this leaves 12 more slots to fill before opening day. |
Welcome back, syrups.

In a whirlwhind second day of wheeling and dealing, the GM of Waffletown brought in another nine players to begin training for the inaugural season (total spent so far: 4001)
-Charlie Root (58) - 1937 -Guy Bush (67) - 1929 -Pete Alexander (66) - 1928 -Earl Johnson (72) - 1940 -Bing Miller (65) - 1929 -Sam Bohne (1921) - 1921 -Jack Russell (63) - 1933 -George Blaeholder (64) - 1934 Danny MacFayden (76) - 1930 this leaves just one more roster spot to fill (will probably look for another outfielder, or possibly a super-sub type to help all around the field). |
