Baseball Fantasy League Draft. 27 Trout. Everybody wants that rare player who can do it all on their team. Yeah, a player that hits for average and hits for power!

"As your attorney, I must strongly advise you against bringing the high heat."

"It was your father's idea - He can't bear to miss a second of the game."

'I am beginning my windup now. ... Drum roll, please.'

'Give us another minute, blue. The surgeon just reattached the tendon and he's closing up.'

Sign Him.
