Elims Commit to Playoffs

"With all the injuries we've suffered this season trades are bound to happen. We're not giving up on this season. We are not going to hold back. This is our season" said GM/Owner Matt Caskey following the acquisition of OF Jason Bay, SP Adam Wainwright, and SP Scott Olsen. The Elims gave up prospect Chris Marrero and OF Mark Teahen with two players to be named. "This is the trade we needed. With Crawford, Hudson, Chamberlain, Young, and Bedard suffering from nagging injuries, we had to find replacements or even upgrades and we did so."
