With so many major league teams aquiring pitchers for the Stretch Run, he was bound to get fed up sooner or later. Well, that day is today.

"ENOUGH!" screamed Stretch Run, "STOP GETTING ME PITCHERS! WHAT THE HELL AM I GOING TO DO WITH ALL OF THESE GUYS? THERE'S A REASON THEY WERE LET GO OR TRADED BY OTHER CLUBS. C'MON, CARL PAVANO, CHAD GAUDIN, JOHN SMOLTZ...MARK MULDER? REALLY? THESE REPORTS ARE ALL OVER! AT LEAST GIVE ME A GIFT RECEIPT SO I CAN TAKE THEM BACK!"

*Twins Right to Acquire Carl Pavano (MVN)

*Yankees Trade for Chad Gaudin (Sliding Into Home)

*Several Clubs Interested in John Smoltz (MLB Trade Rumors)

*Yanks Interested in Mark Mulder (River Ave. Blues)

If MLB teams want to get anything for the Stretch Run next year, maybe try a nice bottle of wine, or maybe a gift certificate to his favorite restaurant.
