Curse of the 1st Round SP Continues!


Well it didn't take long for the curse of taking a SP in the 1st rd of the NASBL Rookie Draft to rear it's ugly head once again. Just two days after holding a press conference to introduce Yovani Gallardo to the RoadKill faithful, the front office went into full damage control when they were notified late today their future ace tore knee ligaments at their Spring Training compound in Kissimmee,FL.


Team Doc James Andrews scheduled an immediate surgery and expects a full recovery in four weeks. When GM Miller was reminded that their division rivals the NJ Trash Heap had pulled the draft day surprise selecting a "healthy" Tim Lincecum he refused to comment. The ATL Journal Constitution is reporting that Miller was seen late this evening with the agents representing fellow draftees Dustin McGowan & Carlos Villanueva.
