Dear Mr. Howe,

I am a 9 year old baseball fan who plays in a fantasy
league and hopes to someday manage a real baseball
team.

Anyway, congratulations on sweeping the Rockies today,
but I have a couple of questions about strategy.

I told all my friends - Geoffy (Porky), Ronnie (Douchey),
Buffy, Hermie (Crabby), Mary, SCie, Mikey, Neri -
that Jason Phillips would play both games of the
doubleheader. I figured one game at catcher, and
one at first base.

I know he's been in a slump, but so has Todd Zeile
and you let him play both games. Also, why let Vance
Wilson catch both games? Now you have to rest him
Friday anyway, right? So if he's only going to
play two games out of three, why make it two games
on the same day?

Same thing with Zeile. San Fran has a lefty going
tomorrow, but I don't think you're going to play Zeile again,
are you? Not after his brilliant 0-10, anyway.

I have to go now. My daddy wants to use the computer
to look at porn, and it's way past my bedtime.

Yours truly,
Paulie "Pee" Lawrence
