Tony Clark, Arizona Diamondbacks
2 for 6, 2 HR, 2 runs, 5 rbis
Hitting .310 with 25 homers and 20 doubles, Tony is surprising everyone by having quite a year for Arizona. But no one is more surprised than the managers in my Illowa APBA League.
See even though the IAL is a continous ownership league, we are, under certain circumstances allowed to drop a player. Well, the owner of Clark saw fit to drop him and when that happens, that player can usually can be had for a song. No IAL manager saw the need or desire to pick him up. I’m sure a lot of us are wishing we had given Clark a second look.
Even with Pujols at first, I certainly could have used him for trade bait..
