You asked that other owner in your fantasy league a thousand times for Dodgers prospect Raul Mondesi (Sr.), and Expos minor league shortstop Wil Cordero and Marlins reliever Matt Mantei slightly less often, and you got nowhere.
If your cordless phone calls were even returned, they didn’t last long, as he inevitably tried convincing you that you should instead consider moving that former 62nd-rounder, Mike Piazza, for the second pick in the previous year’s expansion draft, Nigel Wilson.
Then that guy decided he no longer had time for Rotisserie League Baseball, and turned his team over to a new owner.
