The Pleepleus Monkeybutters managed to eke out a win this week against Team Murph in the California Baseball Nuts League. Pleep was very excited about the win and started celebrating as soon as the win was posted. However, his excitement was tempered when he learned that Peggy had screwed up the free agent pickups. Pleep had crafted a very complicated set of instructions involving pickups of 9 players and drops of 4. In part, he was trying to make up for Peggy's foul up from the week before where she dropped a player without picking one up. This meant the MBs were forced to play the week one player short.Pleep was very pleased to see that the MBs did pick up the catcher and several other fielders he wanted. He also got the one pitcher he wanted, Lidge. However, Peggy picked up the wrong Romero and to boot he was on the disabled list.
Pleep is now crafting a trade strategy involving real money, a Pleep autographed baseball and other incentives. He thinks he will need to clear things with the commissioner to avoid any penalty like the one recently imposed on Harry Parker, Hattiesburg Eagles owner. The MBs are facing Perry Parker's Santa Barbara Angels. Pleep thinks the MBs need to acquire a top pitcher and will welcome offers from one and all.
