De Bacle took a long drag from his Kool. He exhaled slowly dusting his audience with an acrid, garlic-flavored cloud. "I need a lead-off man who'll be a pest. Who'll always be on base and (expletive) with the pitchers and infielders. Womack's gone from both teams. I've brought in the kid, Barnes, from Colorado. He's been a pain in the ass most every at bat this year. He's got speed, power. I know the Rockies stink, but this kid's my kind of ballplayer. Womack is the Yankee's problem. Not mine."
Womack is hitting .220 with 5 RS, no RBIs, and 2 SBs. Barnes is hitting .395 with 4 HRs, 10 RBIs, 9 RS, and 4 SBs. "Jethro Bodine could have decided which (expletive)dummy to keep. It's not rocket friggin science." said De Bacle while stubbing his menthol into a desktop ashtray as if it were an exclamation point.
Barnes begins play tomorrow for both the D-Hacks and Choppers. In other weekend developments Brady Clark (.378, 2 HRs, 7 RBI, 11 RS, and 2 SBs) was added to both teams: D-Hacks when Jose Cruz Jr went on the DL; Choppers for Carlos Lee (.222, 1 HR, 8 RBI, 5 RS, and 0 SB) who was waived outright.
