Note: The original info from the DIPSHIT did not include
reserve move requests made by Fox since they were lost 
in the mail, sort of. I've added that info where appropriate,
in (parenthesis).

Fox 

************************************

Guys-

A little more action this move period than in April.  Eight (Nine) 
teams made at least one move, led by the Invincibles, Pinstripes, 
and Mazins at three each (Mazins ended with two moves).    
Coupled with the Feeble move in April, that leaves Andy with two 
(three) moves for the last five months.  Hope they stay healthy, Andj.  
Also, three (two) teams have yet to make a move: the Foxes (Foxes made
one move), Muckrats, and Leathernuts.

The first trade of the year was also finalized this weekend.  It was a 
crosstown deal:  The Nomads send two Mets, Robbie Alomar and
Armando Benitez, to the Panzas in return for two Yankees, Roger Clemens 
and Alphonso Soriano.  An interesting deal.

Regarding moves, a special thanks to those of you who included the draft 
number of the player you are replacing.  And also, thanks
to Anthony for a good laugh.  His reserve request (properly) included 
the "Don't Peek" warning.  Inside the note, after listing his
requests, he said "Call me if I need to add more choices".   
Tony- you're killing me!!

Other tidbits:
- The closer situation seems to be settling down.  Five were picked 
  this month
- Willo was the only owner to not replace a player because of being 
  snaked (by Hans for Shea Hillenbrand).
  (Andy also missed replacing Derek Lee)
- Willo also won the honor of replacing the highest drafted player 
  (#25), Pudge Rodriguez.  Willo- I told you that was a dumb pick.
- Kudos to Prep for loyalty.  Despite having four pitchers on the DL, 
  he stuck with his staff. Or maybe, his staff is just sticky......
- Jack, you can't claim skill anymore regarding a keen knowledge of 
  players during the draft.  The pitcher you reserved this period
  was ROBERTO Hernandez, not Ramon.  Ike, he was trying to steal 
  your backup catcher.
