NYC GETS O’NEILL, BALKS LEGALIZED, INDY CRUISES
MYRTLE BEACH, SC—Taking notes is a skill. You could write, six months later, a recap of the 1950 BVL Owners Meeting. Memory, be damned. ¶ There were no surprises for the first three names called out at the draft. NYC got their No. 1 knife, Tyler O’Neill. LES selcted starter Ranger Suarez and New York top closer Emmanuel Clase at No. 2 and 3, respectively. The surprise came at No. 4: Brick Church drafted Frank Schwindel. Knowing what has happened since the April acquisition of Schwindel, Foys brass have remained silent. ¶ For the third straight year, the owners business were completed over the Internet. There were bumps along the way that delayed Opening Day. For one, Andrew Villalba Jr. took his entire Cubes organization on a 7-day cruise to Mexico. Everybody returned, safely. Dylan Simonds partied at the Abstract RAP Show and later witnessed a live brawl between the Sea Dogs and Rumble Ponies. There was no way for the New England owner to get Francisco Alvarez’s autograph. Instead, he fed his Hawks with the best lobster rolls in the BVL. ¶ Brooklyn fans blame the Aaron Ashby pick on Jon Simonds successful cataract surgery. ¶ New York boss Adam Goldberg cried and cried when Brick Church drafted Kyle Schwarber. To be fair, the lefty slugger was not on the available players list. Foys, Knights completed a trade two rounds later. Knights got their Schwarber. Wah! ¶ The owners passed three new rules: (1) legalize the balk, (2) introduce the Designated Hitter in 1951, and (3) allow injured players and pitchers to be replaced during the playoffs and World Series. ¶ A scribbled note was found about children in Malta eating berries in the morning. Note to self: write clearer notes.
